I wonder if this seat will go Republican now, just like Ted Kennedy's.

Everyone talks these days about "rights", but precious little time is spent discussing "responsibilities."

His district voted for McCain, so it's possible.

Complications of gallbladder surgery.

No matter how much the government controls the economic system, any problem will be blamed on whatever small zone of freedom remains.

More precisely, his district was the only one in the country that Bush lost in 2004 and McCain won in 2008.

...caused by an accidental nick in the intestine during the surgery.

But that's not yet substantiated, so I think we'll have to wait and see.
