2. Heres a few
Richard Burr, R-NC is up for sure next election and a recent poll shows him trailer the strongest Democratic hopeful.

Mel Martinez, R-FL I believe has said he isn't going to run for re-election, Jeb Bush might be gunning for his seat however.

just off the top of my head, there are more I'm sure

3. How many of them plan to get full government pensions and benefits for life when they
retire? Many, if not most, of them will have become millionaires while in office but will still be feeding at the public trough for the rest of their lives. They ruin the economy and then blame the workers who worked their whole lives for those benefits. Amazing:grr: :grr: :grr:
