Rotarian Red Meat

I came to tonight's debate late, but... am I crazy or did Mitt Romney respond to the question "What have you done for conservatism?" in part by saying his 1994 Senate campaign was so tough that he forced Ted Kennedy to take a mortgage against his house?* Um, yay?


Look, anything that discomfited the late Lion of the Senate is fine by me, but Kennedy is, at last report, dead. He is no longer the big bad wolf of right wing nightmares. Now, if Romney were to force Harry Reid to take out a mortgage on his house, I'll be impressed, but Ted Kennedy is old news.
