Yes! Noble of Jim Matheson to get out of history's way. I received an email from Mia Love saying they "scared" Matheson off. Not the most classy way to put it.

It's the right move for him. Avoid a loss. Cash in and become a lobbyist, make money hand over fist. And then try for another office at another time.
