"'I just felt sorrow, but I’m praying, wishing that he has at least a good chance,' said Angelo
Vespa, 43, of Newton. 'All that he’s gone through, it’s really sad.'
" Following his weekend seizure, Lion of the Senate Ted Kennedy is diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. "Many of his Senate colleagues were visibly shaken, some tearing up, and they quickly expressed their hope for the best possible outcome." As with them, here's hoping for the best.

It's difficult to be so worried and feel so helpless.

I sensed that Senator Obama was shaken last night. I sensed it while he was making his speech--his words didn't have the joyful energy that should've been there. He seemed very worried and sad beneath the surface. Am I projecting? Or did you sense it from him too?

To be honest, Laura, I didn't see the speech last night (I was out late), and only saw the Youtube of it after reading your comment. So, it's hard to get a fair assessment...but I'd bet Sen. Kennedy's condition (and the death of Hamilton Jordan) were weighing heavy on the pols and the pundits last night. I got that sense from the MSNBC crew.
