U.S. Sen. Edward Kennedy, a leading Democrat, was rushed to the hospital Saturday, according to multiple media reports.

CNN said Kennedy had the symptoms of a stroke, according to Reuters, but local affiliate WHDH said his illness was not disclosed.

Kennedy, 76, was taken to the hospital by medical air transport. Kennedy is the senate's second senior member.



Stay tuned, I guess.

"Senator Kennedy was admitted to Massachusetts General today after experiencing a seizure at his home," Kennedy's personal physician, Dr. Larry Ronan, said in a statement released last night. "Preliminary tests have determined that he has not suffered a stroke and is not in any immediate danger. He's resting comfortably and watching the Red Sox game with his family...

Hopefully, he'll recover (and the Red Sox will get back into first place...)
Perhaps his seizure was triggered by seeing the Tampa Bay Devil Rays atop their division .
