RIP. not to turn this into the mad cow forum lol, but how was he not a good legislator? the man served what 17 consecutive terms and then stepped down on his own. don't know what else you want from the guy, like he mentioned you can't make everybody happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
