Robert Byrd of West Virginia
The dumbest thing F. Scott Fitzgerald once wrote, is that there are no second acts in American life. To be fair to Fitzgerald, this line had notes for a novel he never finished. It is believed that if he had time that the conviction would have thrown away, because if there is something we know about America is that it is the land of second chances.
He died nearly three hours on Monday after being admitted to hospital last week for dehydration, but his condition worsened over the weekend and became gravely ill. Byrd was 92.
