What does the last line of the article mean? It reads:

Much political speculation has surrounded Manchin's possible response should Robert C. Byrd die in office, but Manchin has consistantly refused comment on the subject.

As Governor, Manchin would have the power to appoint a sentator to replace Byrd, should Byrd die in office. This applies to all senators, but I assume Byrd's age is why this comment was added. TOO 21:59, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)
