Upon his arrival at the outdoor event, the crowd gave him a standing ovation. The speech was interrupted a few times for applause and the crowd gave him another standing ovation at the conclusion of his remarks.
This is a real statesman. I ask all to support Senator Byrd in his re-election. We need to keep this true patriot in Washington.
