I think Robert Byrd is a disgrace to Democrats and to West Virginia. West Virginians didn't like Gore or Kerry, but they can't get enough of Robert Byrd, who epitomizes what's wrong with Congress and the country.
In what way? Reading up on Senate procedural rules isn't normally thought of as a particulary sane thing to do, but surely you'd prefer a cantankerous old git to some rubber stamping clone who "votes the right way"?
Nothing wrong with that if it goes to good causes
Understandable
In what way has he "Screwed up the country" exactly?
But a lot less poor than when he became Senator. He's done a lot of good work for WV.
