Glad he is back, and look forward to Senator Tim getting better.
The Republicans in the senate are in deep doo doo now.
Even if we go 50-50 we will win.

There is no Howard Baker in the Senate right now...Can a GOP Senator actually tell the president to resign for the good of the country (and take his VP with him)...Bush and Cheney are causing so much damage to our country and to the GOP party....Folks like McCain will have no chance to win in '08 if the GOP continues with the same leadership...

Initially Baker believed Nixon to be innocent of wrongdoing, but as evidence to the contrary mounted Baker changed his mind. Although he angered some members of his party by contributing to the resignation of President Nixon, Baker's skill, style, and persistent search for the truth had earned him the respect of millions after the Watergate ordeal had ended...>>
