Sen. Domenici - retirement rumors

[Deb]

WASHINGTON - The past two months have not been easy for Sen. Pete Domenici, the six-term Republican from New Mexico accused of pressuring his state's former U.S. attorney on a political corruption investigation.

Some have even speculated the trouble might force the 74-year-old to retire in 2008.

Domenici's campaign fundraising tally, however, may quiet speculation, at least for now, that his retirement is imminent.

3. Pete should retire. Then he can roam through his own house in his

jammies and night-nights.

Plus, we'd be just delighted to put a Democrat in that seat.

4. We should be

so lucky that "Pajama" Pete would retire, his latest poke in the eye of his constituents was his vote yesterday against Gov funding stem cell research. Why anyone would be against putting some money into something that has so much potential to do good yet has no problem pissing away billions on other useless stuff is beyond me.
