Today I'm sorry that one of the really finest United States senators amongst the 100 is
not with us. He's on his way to mourn the loss of a fellow Senator, Paul Wellstone. We
all send our send our prayers and thoughts to his family. Pete Domenici is one of the
fine ones. He's a really, really great American. (Applause.) He's a solid, solid citizen.
And I hope, if all goes right, next Tuesday, all around the country we're going to start
calling him, Mr. Chairman again, because we're going to change the United States Senate.
(Applause.)
lordy.
