Senator Ted Kennedy collapsed and went into seizures at the inaugural luncheon.

Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., who is battling a brain tumor, was taken away from the congressional luncheon in convulsions.

Kennedy was at a table with Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., Vice President Mondale and Mrs. Mondale, and others. While at the table, Kennedy began having seizures that lasted for several minutes. As they were carrying Kennedy out of the room, he was still seizing. President Barack Obama went out of the room with him, but he is back in the luncheon room now.

UPDATE at 1/20/09 1:22:31 pm:

Latest word is that Kennedy and Robert Byrd (who also collapsed) are both doing better…
