Sen. Ted Kennedy makes surprise appearance

I was there.  After the tribute was shown, the Senator made his appearance. I can’t tell you in words what it felt like: the tremendous adoration and respect for him was palpable.

A former candidate, I've learned a lot about politics, both good and bad. I'd prefer more of the former and a lot less of the latter and I'm trying to do my part!

  1. I was watching on the big screens in the Big Tent. You could have heard a pin drop in there.

    Several people, including myself, shed a tear, knowing that his time was limited and knowing how much it took for him to be there.

    I will never forget that night.
