Teddy Kennedy, RIP

1932 - 2009

Edward "Teddy" Kennedy served as a Senator from the state of Massachusetts from 1963 until his death yesterday. There are many great tributes to the youngest of the four Kennedy boys all over the internet right now. Here are a few I thought I would share:

The NY Times had a pretty comprehensive obituary covering the ups and downs of his life that I enjoyed reading last night. Politico.com has a nice article collecting tributes made by some of the most influencial Democrats and Republicans in U.S. politics. They also have a video of highlights from speeches ranging from a eulogy for his brother in the sixties to him campaigning for Obama last year.

Joe Biden shared some heartfelt thoughts on the decades he and Kennedy shared together in the Senate:
