Byrd, one of the 20 who voted against the war.

He's too old, needs to quit, along with super senior McCain.

Could we see that endorsement on tape. I suspect Byrd has been dead for months, he just hasn't fallen over yet.

Clinton's "resounding victory" in West Virginia has produced great results--for Obama. The old liberal democrats have learned their "ABCs"--Anybody But Clinton.

Byrd will even endorse a you know what if it keeps the pork flowing and ensures that every new structure in West Virginia continues to be named after him.

NOW we will have a NEW world that can correct the devastating effects that the Bush Administration has leveled on the United States and the rest of the World.
