[ViperRob42]

Long live Teddy!

[Anandaluv]

Go TeddY!

Go Barack, the voice of the next generation!

[jlhawkins77]

Onward to the moon!!! Obama 08!!

[Flgaljane]

He's a tough old bird, Teddy ... good for him! Obama/Biden '08!

[levinethemachine]

BarackObamadotcom-you fear the truth. You refuse to approve my fact based posts. Why?

[darkcorsom]

Get well soon good man... From Turkey..

[osjb]

Thank you Teddy for your service to this country. Don't be afraid to rest when you must, cry when you have too, and fight when it is necessary. God bless you and your family.

[hooterhoser]

i cant help wonder what Bobby and John would say about Obama and the road that they paved for this day

[Imeyou59]

Thank you,,Ted Kennedy,,We,,as a Country will Never forget,,all You have done,,for those left behind,,GOD BLESS''

[tito06]

i believe in obama and i believe in the change he will bring this country. we really need someone like him, such a positive energy about him, similar to jfk.

him becoming president will make me more proud of this country because i know he'll bring back the respect this country once had before gorge bush took office..

[writemrbond]

Great!  I hope Kennedy's dreams can finally be realized. Obama for America!

[frenz789]

God Bless Him :)

[mikbone87]

[mikbone87]

go obama!!!

[landa412002]

Long Live Uncle Teddy and May God Bless! Thank you for all you've done for this country and ALL of it's people. My very first memory of your family is John taking the mantle of President of the United States. I'll never forget you or your family. Thank you all for all the accomplishments and sacrifices you made for us. See you in January Teddy!!!!

[capullis]

God bless Ted Kennedy!

[mikbone87]

go obama!!!

[mikbone87]

From Italy: go Obama!!!

Ted Kennedy is great!

Why don't we have politics like them?

[hyp3rgurl4ev3r]

Karoline Kennedy should run for public office.

VOTE OBAMA/BIDEN 08!

[tito06]

i believe in obama and i believe in the change he will bring this country. we really need someone like him, such a positive energy about him, similar to jfk.

him becoming president will make me more proud of this country because i know he'll bring back the respect this country once had before gorge bush took office..

[mortysand]

He left a hospital bed to deliver this speech.

[Desnoxvu]

Ron Paul's convention will be cooler but the Democrat Convention is gonna wtfpwn the republican Neo-convention.

[nst4343]

great

[paulywally13]

What an amazing speech!!

[natem20]

that's power

[almajor2]

Kennedy are Royalty in USA, they only want the best for their contry and their people, that is a Christian principle, Bless you, i hope you live forever, did you see the pretty Maria Shriver, she is a Lady. My Good bless this World

[bezerkfurp]

what do u mean christian principle? The fundamental principles Ted Kennedy is talking about here is also Muslim and Hindu principles... almost all religions talk about the same thing Ted is talking about.

[peanutplays]

Wow IF Teddy is responsible for all those things he's pretty amazing isn't he? However I don't believe he single handedly did all those things but isn't it just great how he takes credit for all these things, it shows how truly humble he is!

[tanith33]

I don't know how old you are, but everything *Caroline* said about her uncle is true. That's not him taking credit, that's Caroline outlining his life's work and accomplishments.

Teddy's been working for Americans for just over four decades. He may not always have been a stellar human being, but he was and is a good senator. Read about his career and you'll see.

[koikoiboi]

I don't anyone said at anytime that he did any of those things single handedly, rather he contributed in a large way to each. His unwavering support was certainly was a huge factor in the Northern Ireland Peace process

[Aubere98]

Teddy Kennedy has done a great deal for the working class since he has been in the senate. I'm glad that people are recognizing his contribution while he yet lives.

[MaHaRushie]

A dedicated public servant. His ideas are just very out of wack.

Get well soon.

[sxer99]

Sweet Caroline!

[pnawia]

Caroline was amazing! love her!

[fireemblem1992]

What an awesome man!

[diana9676]

Foever Kennedy. I love teddy! and I love caroline to but i love teddy more

[1airportsignguy]

Nominate Me and in 7 years, I will jobify America. There will be health care for those Americans that become sickified, and the global warmification will be dealt with by my staff. Vote for Me. Thank you...What do you mean I can't?...I can fix that. I am the "Fixer"....Mission Accomplished...G.W.

[Writergirl1015]

As a Black woman I believe The Kennedy's have always represented fairness and a geniune desire for goodness as they've fought for equality for all of us. I wish I was on the earth when JFK and Robert Kennedy were here. My mom always says how she wept when JFK was killed. I felt the same love for the Kennedys last night. They suffered so much tragedy and yet they are truly royalty in this country. I pray for Sen. Kennedy and am so grateful for their leadership.

[jerryforman786]

Teddy is my senator too!!! I love you Caroline.

[DEEJAY3991]

God Bless him

[Ray2240]

In a government full of self serving politicians who look no further than the next election, a real statesman like Teddy Kennedy is a rare jewel.

[monicauk30]

Get well soon Mr. Kennedy.

[buyologist]

Teddy would have been one of our very best presidents. Thank God we at least have had him in the senate for so many years. The majority of people don't realize the good he has done for so many years for all of us.

[princess11222]

we love you sweet Caroline and uncle Teddy

[Solidsonic1]

If I don't see Obama Family in the white house im movin out of the United States and movin to Canada. We Want Change not the Same ol" Thang and i believe 30% of America hates Change and we need  let it embrace us as people. And I will Vote for Barrack Obama For President of The United States Of America

[kingqwerty]

KEN-NE-DY!

KEN-NE-DY!

KEN-NE-DY!

[albuhhh]

one of the last great lions of the senate...

[KannabisChris]

OBAMA..BIDEN..08

[utalice]

I really wish Barack would have chosen Caroline for his VP. She would have made a great 1st female VP for America.

I like hearing Ted speak, it reminds me of JFK (his voice). Poor guy, you can tell he's struggling...but he's very hard headed (good thing!). Great speech. =D

[syanarasucka]

i love his little chuckle at 44

[BonusRoundTube]

The Pell Grant is getting me through college thank Teddy!!

[krazyfua]

Had he not been old, Teddy would've been Obama's best partner.

[andersonwilliam85]

Teddy has made so many mistakes in the past, but like a great American, he worked to get past those mistakes and atone for them. This was a rousing speech supporting the best presidential candidate in 40 years and will help unite the party and bring Obama into the White House! Obama 08'!

[mikbone87]

From Italy: go Barack Obama!

Ted Kennedy is great!

Why we don't have politics like them?!

[Molliepet]

T. Kennedy, please know we are proud that you trusted your Savior to protect you in coming out last night, may you be fully healed of this nuisance in your brain. We are praying for you!

[SimonPeter168]

hey God bless the pell grants!

[mber18]

Love you Teddy!! God Bless You

[roekai08]

OBAMA is outstanding indeed however

"There are people who are not going to vote for him because he's black,"And we've got to hope that we can educate people to put aside their racism and to put their own interests No. 1''

[arivera3426]

it's too bad that dumbass dubya can't speak like this because he always his foot in his mouth.

GO OBAMA!!

[Sparkanoid1]

Watched it live from the UK

Obama '08

[oldsteinar]

Senator Kennedy fought hard to keep Social Security and Medicare soluable. God bless Senator Kennedy, and Carolyn. Pray for Peace.

[krankykubby]

Teddy rules

[ATTAHJERRY]

kennedy, great man

[VinylLPs]

Great Speech. Does anyone knows who wrote it?

[cosmlayla]

Love you Teddy. You rock!

[sylvanb]

It's good to see Ted is smiling and still living, you don't wish bad things for anyone, even though he ismore liberal than the day is long.

[Erik2erik1234]

God bless Ted kennedy. He is one of the best senators the USA has ever seen. I pray he can beat this. His family has done so much for this family. No political family has had such sucess or tradegy as the Kennedy Family.

[tjr247]

God Bless you Uncle Teddy!

[musiclode]

Great Job last night!.... I am blogging live from the DNC in Denver....roadmarchtothewhiteh­ouse.blogspot

[Baldgol4]

Good to see the Kennedy posters again. Makes me feel bad for what should have been... Bobby Kennedy, John F. Kennedy Jr. I believe those two would have made a positive difference in American and in the world.

[oooooDisgruntledMonk]

Best of luck with your health concerns, Senator.

[11pathp]

TED FOR VP

[Texasbluedog]

Wow, Uncle Ted spoke better and more forcefully than anything I've seen McCain do! And he's nearly 10 years older with a brain tumour! I find it impossible to imagine how the GOP is going to top this - and we're just getting started!

[antoniusalta]

Martin Luther King Jr said, "I have a dream." Teddy DOES have a dream, it is for UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE...covering the 50,000,000 Americans who are uninsured and underinsured! It must happen in the Obama Administration. Finally. Why does it take 30 years to get this done?

[lioneater76]

What a speech. The torch has been passed!

[christianTrueLies]

WOW... this is change!

Kennedy is Right on the Money!

Thank goodness no more Al Qaeda, Iraq, Al Qaeda, Iraq, Al Qaeda, Iraq!

[godislove92]

Even though I'm a conservative republican, you cant not respect Ted Kennedy. He is a legend in American political history, he has done so much for his nation.

WAY TO GO TED!!!!!

[mistaeyez]

Wow...9 comments before me and I couln't believe how many I couldn't read. Listen, Obama in '08. He will improve our education, and by the looks of things, we need better education.

[trommelbiel]

Caroline looks so pretty. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!

[janebusby]

Iraq costs the US taxpayer $10 billion dollars every month. It has also cost over 4,000 dead US soldiers, and 30,000 injured.

Iran is much more sophisticated. Much richer. With a much bigger army, and more international support than Iraq had.

Iran will cost the US much more than Iraq.

A vote for McCain is a vote for a war with Iran.

[McGeachan]

A Great Man - and an inspirational speech!

[taxire]

Yes we caaaannn!!!!

[JJRavinsky]

Teddy is the man.

He is what politicians should aspire to be.

[bostondlethol]

I love Teddy God Bless Him

[SolitudeDemise]

A very moving speech by Edward Kennedy. He not only lives up to his family legacy, but sets the bar even higher.

[Clarity884]

Everything that Caroline said about her uncle was dead-on true.

I hope with all my heart that everything that all that Ted Kennedy wishes for comes to pass. He paints a Camelot for a future that I would want to be a part of.

[cy4sure2007]

[demeola88]

[yugoslav101]

obama should support a serbian kosovo unless he wants 300000 serbian votes in illinois going to john mccain.

[firesabers]

way to go Teddy!

[sakodavid]

GO KENNEDY!!!

[Lizza51]

What a poignant moment - the "torch" passing, both literally and figuratively! Thank you Mr. Kennedy, for your gifts over the years, your courage and vision over time, and your blessing tonight....a most important moment for the Democratic party and the future of America.

[politicalfarce]

God Bless you Teddy!

Senator Ted Kennedy is a national hero, and I was moved to tears tonight when I watched this on TV. "Yes, we will!" elect Barack Obama!

[azcarrot]

[Deepstarr7020]

Powerful he will not be defeated

[EliteOps1]

Barack Obama.. only choice for USA '08!

Phenomenal. Thank you Ted Kennedy for a lifetime of service and a strong boost towards a better future. This was the highlight of the night.

[ibexr88]

God bless you Ted.

I hope you live to see the day all of your hard work for true health care finally paid off.

[1rendezvous]

Notice other party does not have such great leaders/statemen like Mr. Kennedy who r admired by most Americans & world! Who r the great leaders in that other party? Cheney, Bush, Macaca, Romney? Nope, they just don't measure up! Where's Roosevelt, Gore, Kerry, Biden, JFK, equivalent in the 'conservative' party? Seems to me other party squanders their status for selfindulgence-that's why they don't have great leaders! Long live Kennedy & as for Caroline, I would vote 4 her first female president!

[dbeeja9]

Yes we will.

God bless you Senator Kennedy

[Coldkilla9]

One word: Perfect.

[QuedaTBxtCh]

amazing....

[ShadowsPhoenix]

Hey TED! SUP DUDE!

[crimsong19]

Phenomenal speech, Ted!

[dtman83]

That's amazing that he came to speak at the convention. That shows how dedicated he is to Barack, risking his life to be there. Senator Ted Kennedy, a real American Hero.

[flamablesteve]

Ted should wear three piece suites, so he can compare himself to Teddy Roosevelt.

[blackcopEH]
