I remember reading a while back that there was a movement to force Byrd to step down but that the likely successor was Patty Murray because Inoue is too attached to running his precious Defense subcommittee. Not that Murray would have been a real improvement.

(Shameless self-promo – I discussed the move to force Byrd out here: http://publiusendures.blogspot.com/2007/12/sen-byrd-getting-pushed-out.html )

Inouye is a spry 84 ;)
