Ted Kennedy rushed to hospital

From John King
CNN Chief National Correspondent

(CNN) -- Sen. Edward Kennedy was rushed to a hospital in Massachusetts
Saturday morning, a well-informed, prominent Democratic source in that
state told CNN.

Kennedy was transferred to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston
after spending less than an hour in the Cape Cod Hospital emergency
room, a spokesman for the Cape Cod facility told CNN.

David Reilly said Kennedy was admitted to the Cape Cod emergency room
around 9 a.m. ET. Massachusetts General said it had no information on
Kennedy.

The source said the 76-year-old senator had "symptoms of a stroke" at
the Kennedy family compound in Hyannis Port.

Kennedy had surgery in October to clear his carotid artery in hopes of
preventing a stroke. Colleagues said he had recovered quickly and was
working energetically recently.

He suffers chronic back pain from injuries suffered in a plane crash
in 1964.

Kennedy has represented Massachusetts in the Senate since 1962. He is
one of only six senators in U.S. history to serve more than 40 years.
He is known as a liberal champion of social issues such as health
care, family leave, and the minimum wage.

He ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic presidential nomination in
1980. He has endorsed Illinois Sen. Barack Obama for the 2008
nomination.

Kennedy is the youngest of nine children in the famous family of
Joseph and Rose Kennedy. His oldest brother, Joe, died in World War
II; two other brothers, President John F. Kennedy and Sen. Robert
Kennedy, were both assassinated in the 1960s.
