BOSTON, Massachusetts (AP) -- A plane carrying U.S Sen. Edward M. Kennedy from western Massachusetts to his home on the coast was struck by lightning and had to be diverted to New Haven, Connecticut, his spokeswoman said.
The eight-seat Cessna Citation 550 plane lost all electrical power, including communications, and the pilot had to fly the plane manually, according to spokeswoman Melissa Wagoner. No one was hurt.

That's a crying shame. With Teddy dead, some things might have changed.

That airport is down the street from my sister's house, maybe she'll have some stories for me...
