Moments like these I begin to warm to term limits:

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) _ U.S. Sen. Robert C. Byrd wants West
Virginia voters next year to focus on the seniority he ’s built up
after more than a half-century in Congress, as opposed to his
sparring with the president or his age.
“Show me another 87-year-old man who’s got the energy that I’ve
got, and I’ll eat your hat,” Byrd told The Associated Press on
Monday.
Expecting to kick off his 2006 campaign for a record ninth term
on Tuesday, Byrd stressed his credentials as a veteran lawmaker and
the longest-serving member of the powerful Senate Appropriations
Committee.
