Ted Kennedy has gotten into a pickle again - this time with a bunch of angry activist supporters of Hillary Clinton. The liberal Massachusetts Senator, fresh off his brazen endorsement of Barack Obama, barely had time to duck from flying purses thrown at him by an attacking band of frenzied New York feminists. With his endorsement of Obama just given yesterday, Ted Kennedy was jumped on early and often today and has jeopardized, if not already lost, his long standing approval rating with women activist groups and feminists across the country. But the move angered the state chapter of NOW, which called Kennedy's decision the "greatest betrayal." "We are repaid with his abandonment!" the statement said. "He's picked the new guy over us. He's joined the list of progressive white men who can't or won't handle the prospect of a woman president who is Hillary Clinton." The group said it was our obligation to "elect, unabashedly, a president that is the first woman after centuries of men who 'know what's best for us."'
"Women have just experienced the ultimate betrayal," NOW's New York State chapter said in a scorching rebuke. "Senator Kennedy's endorsement of Hillary Clinton's opponent in the Democratic presidential primary campaign has really hit women hard."

Is this video really from Marcia Pappas, President of NYC NOW Chapter, it sure looks a lot like Rosie O'Donnell to me. Does it seem to you that Hillary has really surrounded herself with a good group of people to be in the White House with her?
After years of support for NOW, Ted Kennedy now has made a new bed to lie in after his "ultimate betrayal". For Ted's sake, he better hope Obama follows through and beats Hillary, because if Billary wins ... it is going to be very hot in the White House kitchen for Teddy from NOW on!

I can't believe that we are months away from having this band of malcontents inside the White House. Teddy has it coming but the rest of us don't. How are we going to avoid this for 4 (8) years? God please help us.
I had this horrible dream in which I was the Will Smith character in the film "I Am Legend" and I was being pursued by hordes of monsters. Except, each of the zombie vampires had the face of either Rosie O'Donnell or Billary.
The mean, angry women of NOW have it wrong. We do not object to a woman as president. There are quite a few who would be excellent. We object to Billary as president!
I didn't realize that there were still feminists around. Didn't this "movement" fade away at the end of the 1970's? So much for moveon.org. Now I see why Hillary ran to New York as the state for her carpet bag, there are a lot of hacks there just like her.
I heard Bill was really angry at Teddy about this. Surely a sign that there are cracks forming in the foundation of the democratic party. Obama is doing a good job of getting the message out to the young voters. the message of uniting and he can lead us into change. Will Teddy endorse McCain if Hillary beats Obama?
