There's an old saying in Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee - that says, fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again.

Nothing surprising about that. As a general rule in both parties, you don't run against an incumbent from your own party. You wait your turn.

Which reminds me . . . Several years back, I was into urbexing, ie; Urban Exploring, scouting old shut down buildings, closed factories, prisons, hospitals, etc ... after several years of neglect, these places take on a life of their own. What's really interesting, is going in after a "scrapper" has been in there, yanking out anything recycleable that can be sold. A buddy of mine who used to do this with me once remarked, that a scrapper would spend all day busting through concrete to get $10 worth of copper, than working a real job . . .

And do $100,000 worth of damage to get that $10 piece of copper. I've seen pictures of guys electrocuted (burned to crisp) while trying to steel live copper wiring, thieving bass turds.
