4. They also reported it was Byrd.
So we really have no clue at this point.

8. either way... oh no!
Why is everyone at the luncheon acting normally on MSNBC? Nothing on the bottom of the screen either.

I hope it's just that he (whoever it is) is tired.

10. Not to make light, but if it is Byrd, this has been a common occurrence
Obviously, it is serious and leading to something eventually, but Byrd is 91.

11. Kennedy
ABC is reporting that it was Senator Kennedy, from some sort of a seizure. Senator Byrd was very emotional and left also.

13. Obama spoke and said that his prayers were with Teddy and family
It's good that he was able to make it to this event. He looked good earlier.
