I tell ya I get no respect

I know Michael Dukakis was a lousy and utterly forgettable presidential candidate, but you would think he would at least be remembered in his home state:

"Senator, I served with Jack Kennedy, I knew Jack Kennedy, Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you are no Jack Kennedy."

That, of course, was the late Lloyd Bentsen, the vice presidential runningmate to Al Gore who ripped into Dan Quayle during the 1988 debates.

Quayle had drawn the Texas Democrat's ire when he referred to the former president.

Danny Boy got the last laugh, however, when his boss, Bush Sr., defeated Gore. The Kennedy quote, however, endures.

Yikes!
