Get Well, Senator Kennedy

Senator Ted Kennedy is one of Blue State Digital's longest serving technology and strategy clients. We all consider it an honor to work for the senior Senator from Massachusetts, who we lovingly refer to as "Uncle Teddy" in the office.

At BSD, we've worked to help give Senator Kennedy a voice online to fight for a higher minimum wage, to bring the war in Iraq to an end, and to elect a stronger Democratic majority in the U.S. Senate.

When news broke of Senator Kennedy's diagnosis, BSD was left stunned and speechless.

Blue State Digital's thoughts, prayers, and best wishes are with Senator Kennedy, his family, his friends and his staff during this difficult time.

As Senator Barack Obama said in Iowa:

"There are few people in this country who embody that spirit more than our friend and our champion, Senator Edward Kennedy. He has spent his life in service to this country not for the sake of glory or recognition, but because he cares -- deeply, in his gut -- about the causes of justice, and equality, and opportunity. So many of us here have benefited in some way or another because of the battles he's waged, and some of us are here because of them.

"We know he is not well right now, but we also know that he's a fighter. And as he takes on this fight, let us lift his spirits tonight by letting Ted Kennedy know that we are thinking of him, that we are praying for him, that we are standing with him, and that we will be fighting with him every step of the way."

We've all sent our best wishes to Senator Kennedy. And you can too, using this online form on Senator Kennedy's Web site.
