[Mr. Thorne]

Probably doesn't. I got the impression while watching C-SPAN. Here's Hatch, going great guns, and he slows down to make nice with 'my friends across the aisle.'

I couldn't be a senator. I could NOT be that collegial toward people who would backstab me, and insult my friends and associates for political gain.

I'm doomed, it seems, to the private sector...

[Howlin]

I don't call that being doomed. I call it being smart!

Needless to say, I wouldn't last a day; they'd have to call the Sergeant at Arms to drag me off to the Cloak Room!
