Now I have known Sen. Bill Frist, the Majority Leader of the United States Senate, since he was born.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I am a great admirer of Sen. Frist, who is a nationally known heart surgeon and well known in Nashville as a great family man who has dedicated his life to helping others and, in that regard, he has followed in his father's footsteps.
I can honestly say that being a United States Senator has been the honor of my life.
My husband is the first man to consistently be involved in the Senate Spouses group.
I was the only person of color in the Senate, and my colleagues were Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms and Trent Lott.
Rush Holt would be a fine senator. He's an actual physicist, which is neat. He cares very strongly about global warming, which is probably the single most pressing issue of our era.
I worked in the Senate in the 1970s. I worked for the Labor, Public Welfare Committee, and we had Ted Kennedy and my old boss, Bill Hathaway, and Walter Mondale.
He was my favorite senator... I love him. He made the liberals squeal.
I'm interested in being part of a majority in the Senate.
John Danforth, I thought, was a great senator and did a great job with the United Nations. I think he's a good man.
When his nomination comes before the United States Senate, Timothy Batten can count on my strong support... He is the right person for the job.
