Hatch retirement?
During a Senate hearing on a bill to give Utah a fourth congressional seat, Sen. Orrin Hatch was making the case that the state has grown so much that it needs more representation in Congress. St. George, he pointed out, is the nation's fastest growing city.

"It's also been rated the top retirement community in America," Hatch added. "Some have suggested that I need to go there."

"Not yet," countered Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn.

Next election,I think,we,as,responsibile voters,ought to give the Senator all the help he needs to make his way to retirement. He is long past over-the hill.
