Jeff is pretty old, and I think the game is for him to do twelve months, retire, and the Gov pick some replacement (ex-gov Riley’s son maybe) to replace him, with a new election in 2016. I’d like to see someone else but Jeff’s done a good enough job.
Sessions turns 68 next month. I see no reason yet why he’d retire, especially right after a reelection victory. You still have Shelby in, and he’s 80. Unless he goes native, I don’t see why Jeff can’t do two more terms and retire at 80. Shelby needs to retire in 2016 when his term ends.
