I think he is tired of the RINO administration/policies in Washington.

He's definately on an island in DC with only a handful of others in his policy and voting record.

He'll be missed by me, and I am grateful for what he has stood for. If the rest of the republicans in the senate were half as conservative as Senator Nickles, we would have a senate and a majorty worth praising.
