Senator Ted Kennedy has officially endorsed the man he once called “Osama bin Laden.”

UPDATE: A classic Obama quote:

“We’ve got to call up not just Republicans,” said the Illinois Democrat, “but we got to call up Ted Kennedy and say, Ted, you’re getting a little old now, and you’ve been a fighter for us before I don’t know what’s happening now, Ted get some spine and stand up to the Republicans.”

I guess that’s water under the… man, you just can’t get away from a Chappaquiddick joke with Ted Kennedy.
