You left out Ted Kennedy and John Murtha. Maybe its time for term limits.
Your comment about Sen. Pete Domenici shows ignorance about his disease. It may be progressive, but there are some good medications that help with the symptoms. I have the disease and everyone says that I seem like my old self. If he is in the same situation I am, he may not have any trouble serving out his term.
FTD is progressive as all dementias are, even Alzheimer's. The symptoms vary greatly and it's a catch-all phrase for a number of specific diseases. If he's using FTD to define it, he's probably in the early stage and it hasn't been more precisely diagnosed yet. It's a rare disease, but maybe not as rare as some may think since the internet is allowing more people to be aware of it and learn about it.
