Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs-Jones is in critical condition. The details are still coming, early reports say that she has died but now it appears she is in critical condition with little brain function.

I was very impressed with the Congresswoman's dedication to woman's issues especially in her support of Hillary Clinton. She was strong in her convictions. What a sad event.

Keep her in your prayers

The reports came in about a half hour ago that she has passed.

Thoughts and prayers with her family.

Wow. Let me ammend this. CNN and Cleveland.com had reported she had died. Just went back and they have retracted that.

regardless, it doesn't look good and I hope for the best.

Colleen---Very appropriate sentiments and observations.

I think it goes to show that recognition of our humanness and our frailties brings us together much more than any petty political bickering does to tear us apart.

She's gone and what a gaping hole she leaves behind.

First we lost Fannie Lewis and now Stephanie Tubbs-Jones. This is beyond sad.
