Orrin Hatch, who's served in the U.S. Senate representing Utah since 1977, announced Tuesday he would not seek re-election in 2018.

Good line. I don’t agree with the idea Hatch was a good senator. He tripped us on the road to decent policy too many times over the years.
He's a Mormon hypocrite and a go along to get along GOPe pos....that basically let the left take over....during his time...in Washington.
I've very little to say positive about his tenure in Washington, D.C....
Name me something the guy said...and better yet did...besides taking his check...and running home to run again..for freaking 30-40 years!!
“Why do the damn baby boomers want to screw up the country forever.”
Trump is a baby boomer. It is not Romney’s boomerism that makes him what he is, it is the same thirst and ambition for power that is common to mankind.
Obama is certainly not a baby boomer.
Just like in Alabama? - although after he signed my year book Mitt tried to take advantage of me 40 years ago.
Wasn't a huge fan of Orin but damn Mitt its a Twitt and a traitor. Remember him working on his cars with less than a month out from the election in 2012?
Romney, Bush, Ryan are why I don't consider myself a Republican, oh and cromnibus.
The focus is always on when politicians don't vote with their party or ideological movement, and they're either glorified or vilified for that.
Most of the time, they vote with the party and that's their contribution.
“Gift to Mitt.”
Mormon Mafia. Hatch wanted to run again.
They pressured him out for something ‘big.’
Mitt plans to primary President Trump.
He’ll fail, but he’s used to that.
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God!
Someone got some kind of brain washing thing going on?
Because being a two time loser just is not enough?
At least, Hatch stood up strong to advance President Trump’s Tax Bill.
I loved how he eviscerated Ohio RAT Senator Sharrod Brown during one of the conference sessions.
Do you really think Senator Mittens will be an improvement over Hatch??
Granted, the history you cite is noteworthy, but I’d take another six years of Hatch any day, given the choice.
It's possible, I guess, but he's already seventy.
He won't win and would damage the party.
A lot depends on whether anybody gets in there first.
If somebody else beats Mitt to the punch, Romney probably won't run.
I have a hard time believing those ACU scores.
Hatch was a 62, and Mike Lee a 100? I dont see it
Lee, along with his partner in crime Rubio, was responsible for increasing the child tax credit for people who pay no federal income tax
Love has been a frequent critic of Trump. Huntsman endorsed him
We need people in the senate who will not work to undermine Trumps agenda
Hatch was a go along to get along..and he was there too long.
I tell you this....Mormons run that state...and have billions of $$ at their use.
I don't trust Hatch nor Mitt...nor the Mormons.
Romney has four principal residences - Belmont MA, Wolfeboro NH, San Diego CA and Holliday UT.
I don’t know that he can be said to “live” anywhere - although I did run into him at the Wolfeboro town dump at the end of summer 2015 dumping a bunch of cardboard.
You know the guy could have donated that cardboard to some homeless....folk....: )
There is no chance that Utah will elect a Democratic Senator.
I consider Trump a Gen X’er. :-). Obama is DEFINITELY a boomer. He was born in 1961, boomers finally stop at 1965.
Don’t we have some conservative who can run?
