"Here in Rome Ted Kennedy is nobody. He's a legend with his own constituency," says the Vatican official. "If he had influence in the past it was only with the Archdiocese of Boston and that eventually disappeared too."

Boston gave off bad vibes

As the shock waves dissipated following yesterday's Vatican announcement that Cardinal Bernard F. Law had resigned, a sobering reality emerged: His departure does little to resolve the legal quagmire now gripping the Boston Archdiocese, including the nearly 500 pending legal claims and lawsuits brought by alleged sexual abuse victims.
Even with Law gone, ''there's a mess, a real mess,'' said the Rev. John P. Beal, a professor of canon law at the Catholic University of America. ''You've got all those lawsuits out there, and that's going to be expensive. You've got the possibility of the diocese being forced to file for bankruptcy, and what that will mean, God only knows.''
