Sen. Johnson critical after brain surgery

Uh oh. That Democratic control of both houses of congress may be slipping away due to the mysterious and sudden illness of Sentor elect Tim Johnson. Better test him for traces of Polonium-210, quick. Of course, we could just end up with a brain-dead Senator, still occupying his office officially. But this hasn't happened in the US since the Jesse Helms' last few terms. Perhaps Doctor / Senator Bill Frist will get to examine a video tape of Semator Johnson to see if his life support plug should be pulled.
