Timothy Birdnow

I knew he wouldn't just go away quietly.

He's filed to run for his old seat in the '28 term, setting up another fight and huge waste of money just so he can thumb his nose at the outgoing Trump Administration - unless he decides to run for President.

This guy got bitten by the celebrity bug; he got too cool for his station - like that cat in the catfood commercial who rolls up the limo window when it's owner sees it in the car.

There is something about Washington that rots brains. Once people get a taste of the power and attention they will do almost anything to hold on to it. Massie got a lot of attention by doing the same thing John McCain did =- straddling the fence and screwing over the people that brung him to the dance to get good press and attaboys from the Democrats. McCain, like Massie, started as a rock-ribbed Conservative. By the time he died he was indistinguishable from Harry Reid. Only in D.C. do people go from right to left; in all other walks of life it is the reverse.

So Massie will grow bored quickly living the farm life. I suspect we'll have him as a thorn in our side for a long time to come.
