Dick,
Last I checked, Bush will not be able to run for a third term, so asking the "Dukakis question" (and why isn't it the Reagan question?) won't do much for the next Republican candidate other than give them a free opinion poll of what position to take to get the most votes.
With Kennedy, I generally don't concern myself with people who died before I was born. If people who were adults when it happened want to argue it, that's their bag, but if I must participate, I remember someone saying there was a woman with a polka-dot umbrella who everyone was talking about for three days after the shooting and then all talk in the media was squelched. I'll say her umbrella was one of those KGB poison-pellet-shooting specials and she'd just shot him in the throat when Oswald shot him with a regular bullet in a weird bit of synchronicity. In other words, a government assassin and a random nut chose the same moment to shoot him. What are the odds? But history is filled with weird coincidences like that.
As for Soros bankrolling a suit from Michael Shiavo againt Hannity, if the first two parties are willing, we'll see it. But I suspect one or both think it's a bad idea, so we won't.
