Cory Booker breaks the record for longest Senate speech, previously
held by segregationist Strom Thurmond.

No food or bathroom breaks
=========================
 It wasn't until 25 hours and 5 minutes later that the 55-year-old
senator, a former football tight end, finished speaking and limped off
the floor. It set the record for the longest continuous Senate floor
speech in the chamber's history. Booker was assisted by fellow
Democrats who gave him a break from speaking by asking him questions
on the Senate floor.
