Though his long-term prognosis is still unclear, doctors have said he is steadily improving. He has been audibly speaking, following commands and understanding speech, said Johnson spokeswoman Julianne Fisher.Will this guy really get reelected? Would one not rather be at home to convalesce?

If he were a pub there would be a hue and cry for him to step down monthw ago.

. . . audibly speaking, following commands and understanding speech . . . That is a guarded assessment if I ever heard one. Does not sound like he's anywhere near ready to return to work.
And I do hope they are not troubling him with the whole reelection issue while he's trying to recover.

I mean....
Obviously the Dems are desperate to keep this seat.
It isn’t about fairness. Or logic. Or the betterment of our country; good governance.
Now they want to elect a fellow who shouldn’t even be in there NOW. But graciousness is such and so allow the man to serve this term.
But to run him again?
Somebody, somehow and some way ought to get a tape of this man going about a daily day, maybe close to the campaign. For this is a guy with serious recovery issues. God bless that he should recover enough to live a simple life but to keep him in congress?
They lie to us all the time.

He has been audibly speaking, following commands and understanding speech, said Johnson spokeswoman Julianne Fisher.Based on that assesment, he'd seem to be capable of functioning at a higher level than Bobby Byrd or Ted Kennedy -- so then why isn't he voting in the Senate??? And since he's not, he's probably worse off than they're letting on.

He's more coherent than Ted Kennedy and Robert Byrd.

His loyal supporters have to behave as if he will be better and will run.
You or I would do the same.

Being a Democrat, we probably how no idea of the PRESSURE that
his Democratic colleagues have place on him.
Even to stay at his post at great risk to his health.
Not to speak of his mortality.

How can someone who cannot fulfill his duties still be a Senator? And now the Rats have seen to it that he can run for re-election? There has to be some stipulation just like the President and VP have that if a Congressman is deemed unable to fulfill the duties, that Congressman should be temporarily replaced until that Congressman can resume duties or until the next election cycle.

He will probably win relection aided by the votes of the previously interred. The RATS are pefectly happy to run his Senate office etc., without him. We shall if see the SD voters are equally satisfied with another six years of no representation.
