I tried to copy AP's blurb, but it tried to lock up my computer, and "wouldn't take". They said they thought at first it was dehydration and the heat, but now it's more "serious", as if that isn't bad enough.
Damn, an open seat in a WV Senate seat, ain't that a rarity?
You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
I'm from West- by god- Virginia and I agree with you both.
Some folks 'round here think he is wonderful and they vote him in each time he is up for re-election. Go figure. What a disapointment. Yep the Klan will be saddened. .

Might be time for that Senate seat to have a Republican sitting in it.
I'm not wishing ill on Byrd, but he has lived a long life and has been a shell of his old self for the past several years. I hope he has put his faith in what is eternal and not in himself. There is a lot of bad that Robert Byrd has done, and not even the best of us mortals can redeem himself.
Senator Byrd �Seriously Ill� By JANIE LORBER Senator Robert C. Byrd, Democrat of West Virginia, the longest serving senator in U.S. history, is �seriously ill,� his office announced Sunday afternoon.
Mr. Byrd, 92, who twice served as Senate majority leader, was admitted to the hospital late last week with symptoms of heat exhaustion and severe dehydration as temperatures in the Washington area approached 100 degrees.
He was initially expected to remain hospitalized for only a few days, but has since developed conditions that doctors are describing as �serious.�
Mr. Byrd�s absence could pose a challenge to Senate Democrats as they try to pass the financial overhaul bill and win other procedural battles in the week before the Independence Day recess. With the midterm elections on the horizon, Washington is polarized and Democrats will need every vote they can get.

I don't think they'll have to make "final Arrangements"
I'm thinkin' that on his last expiring breath something like an Indiana Jones movie crash and burn thing will transpire.
Just wish I was there to film it.
