Senator Ted Kennedy went under the knife today for his brain tumor, and is now out of surgery. The Globe reports that Senator Kennedy has emerged from surgery at Duke University Medical Center (what, MGH wasn't good enough?), where his doctor, Allan Friedman, said "Senator Kennedy's surgery was successful and accomplished our goals." As of now, Kennedy plans to return to the senate when his treatment has been completed. We hope Teddy is on a speedy road to recovery.
