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.

"If he loses the election to Mia Love he can’t run in the future for Senate or governor, but if he cuts his losses now, he’s still a winner and he can run in the future for other offices," Cann said.

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.
