Sen. Edward M. Kennedy's brain surgery was successful and "accomplished our goals," a doctor at Duke University Medical Center said Monday.
Kennedy was undergoing surgery for his cancerous brain tumor.
Kennedy surgeon Dr. Allan Friedman said Monday his patient was awake during the 3 1/2-hour procedure, and should experience no permanent neurological effects from the surgery.
A spokeswoman for the Massachusetts Democrat says Kennedy spoke with his wife, Vicki, right after surgery. He told her: "I feel like a million bucks. I think I'll do that again tomorrow."

This is excellent news. Hopefully Sen. Kennedy will make a full and complete recovery.

"and should experience no permanent neurological effects from the surgery." Too bad they couldn't remove the liberalism at the same time.

Who is doing his work in the Senate while he is recovering?

I’m sure it’s a relief to his family and friends as well.

"accomplished our goals," It would be nice to know what those goals were. I suspect that you're correct and that the purpose was to perhaps buy him a little more time.

“Who is doing his work in the Senate while he is recovering?”
Probably his staff, just like before the surgery!
