2. Ha ha. He slipped and almost called Obama, "President."
We all feel that way, Senator.

3. The Old Lion's voice sounds old and tired
I know he's going through so much right now, but it's still sad to see this. I hope he can do as much as he can and enjoy the time he has left, however long that may be.

I never would have recognized him if I didn't know that was him. He looks and sounds completely different. Sad. But that said, I am so happy to see him back.

9. It is amazing that he is doing so well
My daughter's friend's mom had a Glioblastoma brain tumor. Within eight months she was gone. To Senator Kennedy, my prayers go out to you.

10. When you consider what the man has been through, he looks and sounds incredible!
He seems to be doing very well, and I'm so happy he's been able to return to Capitol Hill. Sending good thoughts his way.

13. Welcome back Teddy.....
How wonderful for him to return to see a man who in many respects reflects the optimism, hope and vitality of his brother John, assume the reigns of power. I have prayed for his safe return and hope we have him with us for many years to come.

16. He sounds great and looks spectacular...
It's simply amazing that he keeps going and going. I'd love to get the chance to vote for him in 4 years. :fistbump: I think this says it best... :patriot:

19. I think he sounds great, better than at the convention
Looks like he's lost weight in a good way. I still can't believe he spoke at the convention with kidney stones!

22. Wow!! He's lost weight and looks so good. His voice
now sounds like JFK's; clear and vibrant, and definitely Kennedyesque.

25. I was hoping Obama's grandmother and Teddy would make it
to see him elected. I'm glad that at least Teddy was there to see it all unfolding and is an active participant in this historical process.
