And every year on this date (and other times as well), I reflect on what might have been. This was a blow that staggered our country, and when RFK was murdered in 1968 we were knocked flat. I fear we may never fully recover. Our best hope right now is President Obama, IMHO, and when I see how he is reviled by the same sort that hated the Kennedys, it scares the hell out of me.
