I wonder what he did....? Hard to believe he just stepped down without there being some skeleton in his closet.

Lets see he is getting old, probably has grand kids and has served enough time in the Senate to collect a fat pension. Sounds like a hard decision to me.

I hardly think 59 is old, especially in the world of politics. I still think something else, besides the "wants more time with the grandchildren" rap is iinfluencing his decision.
