Ugh. Good riddance! I wish McCain, and Lindsay Graham would go too!
Unfortunately, I don't think McCain will be around much longer because of his health. He has the same brain cancer that Beau Biden had. I find it very sad. But I do agree Graham should retire.
No one expected a democrat to win alabama either. But Utah loves Romney so he's in. And Hatch wouldn't have won anyway, so it's best he retires.
It's not as if he's walking away anytime soon anyway.
He has a full year left in his term, and a lot can happen in a year, as we've all seen in the events of 2017. I don't expect 2018 to be much different.

I expect the midterms will change a lot of who's in office.
I lived in Utah for years and have a lot of family and friends there. I’m unaware of any that don’t hate him. I’m sure there are people there that love him or support him but for the most he isn’t liked from what I’ve see .
not being liked: I can accept that. As I have said over and over, he really isn't liked by many I don't think, but that doesn't mean:1-people hate him and what he is doing and 2-the state would not support him again if he is the candidate in 2020. Too many here seem to mistake likability for acceptability.

and Hatch wouldn't have won anyway: where are you getting that information? do you have an inside track on how people in Utah are going to vote? BTW, yes, I am glad he is retiring. He has all he can do, is past the age most people call it quits and it is time for new blood.

I clearly said every Utah I know hates him. Actually hates him. And they’re almost all republicans too.

I hope Trump is primaried. I sure won’t be voting for him if he even runs in 2020. I bet a lot of other people here would be happier with a different Republican.

but what news? I read 2 daily newspapers, watch 2 cable networks and listen to the radio daily, never have I seen any mention of his not being able to win had he chosen to run again. I know a lot are glad he decided not to, including myself, but that isn't the same as saying he could not win. BTW, I do pay attention to both sides when getting my news.
