I don't think the Kennedy thing is on many liberal minds these days.

For one thing, Jack was not liberal enough for the current DNC leadership and the Kennedy story has been so tragic and sordid it relates more to pity than power.

There is no Republican that dems would like but there is nobody that they would hate more than Bush. He is just about everything they love to hate. I'll admit he is not the most charismatic guy in the world by any stretch and they do love charisma.

I was never a Clinton hater and I thought, after the Hillary healthcare fiasco he did a tolerable job under the watchful eye of a GOP congress. Lots of conservatives were obsessed with him but it didn't seem to come close to the level of resentment directed to Bush.
