#2 Isn't that typical of a Democrat? They save his life and he's still critical

#5 Saw open your noggin, poke around in the brain, cut a few things out, and you'll be sore for a while.

Sheesh the things the newspeople come up with as "news". I guess in their ignorance, that is news.

#6 I think this is being so heavily reported due to the Media and Demotraitors sheer terror he'll croak or retire and then the Republicans get the Senate. Given their penchant for throwing people under the bus, this is the only reason they care if he lives or dies.

#7 The AVM's location hints that the senator may have some damage to brain centers governing speaking and comprehension, bad combination for a politician. Not being able to walk is one thing, but not being able to speak or listen is something else.

#8 I was "critical" for a day after an entirely routine operation, then was under "special observation" for a couple days. Just SOP, I guess.

I also found that having an EKG machine in the room upgrades the room to a higher (and more expensive) level of care, even if the machine is unplugged and turned off.

#9 Not being able to walk is one thing, but not being able to speak or listen is something else.

Yeah. Why couldn't that happen to Schumer, or Biden or Kennedy, or Durbin, or...

#10 Wouldn't it be cool if he recovers as a right winger ?
