    Arguably one of the least disliked of Republicans, John McCain not withstanding, for me personally.

    At least tried to maintain some sort of civility. Too bad that doesn’t mean much when he goes along with the rest of colleagues and their craziness.

    Not sad he’s gone, but not particularly happy either. Might open up Utah for the Dems in the future.

      Romney’s almost worse. At least with the current crop of republicans there’s no doubting they’re batshit and evil because they don’t even bother hiding it.

      Mittens gives a veneer of civility to a party that has lost its way and isn’t fit for purpose.
