#1 Kennedy to appear, may speak at convention.

Joe? Back and speaking? Obama, he really must be The One!

#2 This gets better and better...

Will Cynthia McKinney make a guest appearance as well?

#4 Hopefully his speech will be brief, along the lines of, "Thank you all so much. Your kindness touches me more than I can say." Anything more may reveal how much damage the cancer has caused.

#5 Remind me - is this DNC a "CLOSED" CONVENTION OR NOT, as IMO this is the BAREST = EMPTY-EST DEM + US MAJOR-PARTY CONVENTION OPENER I'VE EVER SEEN!?

Looks like the Guests, Entertainment, + Street Rallies outnumbers the actual Delegates + major Politicos???

WILL CHECK AGAIN ON TONITE'S NEWS.

#6 Can't rely on reason? Do like the Dems and go with what feels good!

#7 I'm surprised he showed up. His health can't be very good. Besides, the DNC has been warning people not to drink in Denver.

#9 tw,
Short term, the soberness demanded by the treatment may more than offset the damage caused by the illness.

#10 Hey, it's the guy's last hurrah. I've despised him for years but I wouldn't begrudge him this. Let 'er rip, Ted. It's your last chance; make it a good one.

#11 A wise quote from a bumper sticker: "Ted Kennedy's car has killed more people than my gun."

I thought it was nice to see that ol' Ted talked so much about sailing in his video at the convention...too bad cars don't float very well.

#12 He appeared to be off the bottle! Actually LOOKED better than he has in years.

#13 He looked pretty good, didn't he. No obvious ill effects from either the surgery or the radiation. He gave a brief (mercifully for both him and me) exhortation to the crowd, and they ate it up.
