He's planning it already. The news reported he was considering lobbying. Hope the ethics commission builds something in about former legislators waiting for a few years before being allowed to do this type of work. Salespeople have to wait, shouldn't they have to wait as well? The US Congress enacted such a law and Sen. Lott resigned two days before it became effective. Go figger!
