So I had a much better one to offer the interviewer from KBUR’s “Here and Now” broadcast than I managed to squeeze into either of my auctioneer-speed talking head appearances on CNN or MSNBC.

The thought being that Orrin Hatch’s primary embarrassment to Utah and to the nation is not so much his efforts to undermine the state’s status as an eternal public lands domain or his inability to let go of his power. It is more obviously and specifically his downright sickening tendency to give a series of big, wet kisses to the unfortunate choice the Electoral College made last year as head of the executive branch.
