McCain On Kennedy Illness

Per NBC/NJ's Carrie Dann, John McCain on Ted Kennedy's diagnosis:

"Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and to him. We hope and pray that they will be able to treat it and that he will experience a full recovery. I have described Ted Kennedy as the last lion in the Senate. And I have held that view because he remains the single most effective member of the Senate."
