Even more bad news for Democratic senate hopes

Yesterday, I posted about long-serving U.S. Sen. Frank Lautenberg's bleeding ulcer, and noted the best case scenario for senate Democrats - - an ailing 86 year old senator hanging onto the seat for 4 more years, unable to do his job or reliably cast his vote, with a Republican governor waiting to appoint his replacement.

Today, it got worse. Lautenberg was diagnosed with stomach cancer.
