I'm with ya. Get rid of Bennet and Hatch. And I'm glad Cannon is going away. He showed that he is a bitter loser who does not care what damage he does to Utahns as he leaves office. I give thumbs up to Bishop and Matheson, but I don't think they voted to represent their constituencies. They voted against it because they were just scared they would not be re-elected if they supported the bail out. How long have they been in office and they've not done anything to stop the excess. Give them the boot too.
