Hatch is Done
« on: January 02, 2018, 03:28:45 PM »
Orrin Hatch is done in 2018. Is it an R lock, or up for grabs? Looks like Romney might run for it.

I now he's Mormon but I thought Romney was from Massof2shitz.

Romney will take it in a walk, if he runs.  Which he most likely will.  He's already established UT residency.  I'd rather get Mia Love in that seat personally.

Hopefully Grassley follows suit. I think his mind is starting to go.

For senate, it's an R lock. There's a house district where the Ds have a chance, but the senate is a pretty safe bet for Republicans.

I wish Hatch had retired back when Bennett got the boot...
