I suppose Leahy of Vermont is like others who are aging and have health concerns. He will have to virtually be on his death bed before he will retire.

Since he did have a health issue not so long ago, is his health okay to hang on through this election and for six more years after that?

Leahy has done a good job for Vermont, but a Democrat could hold on to that seat if he doesn't run again.
