I mean, I was I went door to door for Thad when he ran for Congress for the first time.

And he was the first Republican elected since Reconstruction to Congress.

And he was a young sort of Rotarian Kiwanis Club lawyer.

Very, very likable.

And there really wasn't a Republican Party in Mississippi.

And the Democrats were all like, you know, Stennis and Eastland.

And unless you wanted to be like a county judge in Itawamba County, why do you want to be a Democrat?

So he ran, got elected.

I was a page for him.

And that last race, I mean, he shouldn't have run.

You know, he did have health issues.

My firm did the race.

I went down to just check on how it was going.
