I agree, it's time. Let he and Vicky enjoy whatever he has left.
Of course, I'd be a little concerned about who Cadillac Coupe Deval would appoint to his seat until the next election.

Don't think Kennedy needs the pay. While there's a lot I don't agree with regarding his politics, he does have a good reputation among both sides of being a good Senator.
But I agree, it's time for change...

He should leave and try to make peace with God. Judgment day is ahead and lobbyists and special interest groups won't be waiting to swab his rump. Mary Jo Kopechne will be waiting. |

Long overdue. And yes, there should be term limits for senators. The big downside of course is they could do more damage as lobbyists.

You can champion his voting record and glorious life as a senator as long as you want. Bottom line is he murdered a girl, deal with it. |

Make it four dopes, Pete. 
I've always admired the guy's tenacity despite his voting record and checkered past. Kind of like Jim Carville(tenacious), only much more civilized. |

Whether he's atoned for it is between him and his God. It's not for us to judge. |
