Even the Ted Kennedy Tribute was About Mitt Romney


 

Democrats debuted a video tribute to the late Sen. Ted Kennedy at Tuesday’s convention in Charlotte, the first since 1956 without him in attendance, and (this being an election and all) they found a way to work Mitt Romney into it. Kennedy, of course, defeated Romney in the 1994 Senate race, and in the process, provided some attack lines that play even better for Romney’ opponents in 2012 than they did then. (That’s why you’ve probably seen a few of them before during this election cycle.) The video wastes no time getting to footage of Romney declaring his support for a woman’s right to choose and Kennedy’s rebuttal that, “I am pro-choice. My opponent is multiple choice.”  There are, of course, some Romney-free segments too, so if you missed it last night, have a look.
