I wish him a recovery. In fact, I hope that he retires from public life and has a long, healthy life with friends and family.

Is your Lt Governor an improvement?

Can she be any worse? I any case, I am thinking long term retirement from politics.

I know "abundance of caution" is a freaking meme in the post covid age, but that actually is how it be when you're talking about heads of executive. He likely didn't have a choice.

Did they x-ray him for a spine while he was there?

Why?

They don't grow back.
And they have to have that removal surgery before being installed.

Negative results

Fake news, he’s not widely popular.

Fake news, he’s not widely popular.

Unfortunately he is (among the gen pop) or else he would not be the Gov.

You must remember, our elections are popularity contests or we wouldn't be here.

My read on Holcomb is he wants to be a senator next. I think he'll need to BE retired, he won't go willingly

Is that a gut thing or have you heard something? I have not heard a word on that anywhere…

Thus, the content of my (apparently cleverly disgused) wishes for him and a long, happy retirement.

What does everyone think about Braun deciding he wants to be governor in '24? Do you think Holcomb will try to grease the skids for him in return for the same consideration in a run for the senate?
