not just the Speaker Pro Tem, and many of them WERE there.

ASSley is 92 years old, a fact that few in the media (except maybe the Daily Beast) will point out. He's probably not going to many if any "events".

But some of us remember that "Al Haig moment" back in 1981, associated with that same damn hotel, who described his OWN "line of succession".
