This is a loss..Trey Gowdy isn't running for re-election

I don't always agree with him, but he's sharp and fair. Going to be hard to find someone like him to chair the Oversight Committee.

He's probably fed up with the mile deep political BS in DC.

I wish more politicians would call it quits after a few terms. "Congressman" was never intended to be a lifetime career. Spend 6-10 years in Washington and GTFO already. Senators get a 6-year term... they should go home after two and someone else take it over. Keep fresh blood in Congress.
I don't care if you're a Democrat or a Republican... if you refuse to consider alternatives to the two parties, you support the Status Quo and you are a major part of the problem.

Only if RGB kicks the bucket before the next president is elected.
