You might not ever see this name again, ive been here for 15 years and loved every minute of it. This is the most enjoyable thing ive ever done in my life to be a part of the u. S. Senate. I love the people who are in the senate. Ive got a real bad rap as some of the a times. And some say i dont matter like some of the media most places. And people who are politicians and serve the people in the community. I never do that not because iham one because i know what you have to do. It is a tough job if its not done right it does not get done the way it should be. Im making sure when i leave the last think the ideal is to lead the people in georgia in good hands given the senior senator from georgia retiring. Unfortunately today at lunch the members gave me a luncheon and
