That's why I don't think Ted Kennedy's endorsement really carries as much weight as Caroline Kennedy's because Ted has the Clintons beat when it comes to scandals.
Although I did like what he said in the above speech.

I think that his endorsement was more of a demanding that the democratic party change, than a slap in the face to the Clintons. What a great day for him, I hope these endorsements can turn into votes, which turn into delegates.
On the other hand on MSNBC...
They talked about how the endorsements today overshadowed the State of The Union. During the after show a picture surfaced of Hillary shaking hands with Ted Kennedy. Meanwhile Obama's back was turned, they went on and on about how Obama just committed political suicide, and with that he just ended his Presidential campaign...

I don't agree with MSNBC at all. Obama was sitting near or next to Kennedy the entire night. Just based on the picture he's turning his back on Hillary, not Ted.
