I'm begining to think that Boehner, Cantor, Putnam, and Blunt are the only real fighters we have on out bench right now...
10/4 UPDATE: Domenici discloses serious illness.
Domenici has told Senate colleagues that he has frontotemporal lobar degeneration, or FTLD, a type of dementia, the AP reported. The disease brings slow deterioration of affected sections of the brain, the front and lower sides — areas that control such things as language and behavior. Unlike Alzheimer’s disease, it often does not significantly impair memory until its late stages.The senator has a much more important fight on his hands now...best of luck to him.
