Ted Sorensen, liberal icon and Kennedy speechwriter (and some say the guy who really wrote Profiles in Courage) is dead

Yet another political person from Nebraska to stomp the terra who is no longer here. I was fortunate to meet him on a few occasions, and appreciate everything he ever did to aid the University of Nebraska Political Science department.
