Guys,
I know this is a political post, but as I consider you all a community of friends we have known for years and years I feel like you should hear this first from me before you read it somewhere else. Ever since I organized the first Tea Party in Utah the thought of running for office has popped in and out of my mind. The thoughts are usually gone with the roar of a 427, driving in a canyon, or the next billet part flashing through our imagination.
Utah's political world upended last week when Congressman Chaffetz declined to enter the Senate race against Senator Hatch. Upon hearing the news, my wife turned to me and said, "If Chaffetz won't do it, then you have to." I told her, "But I love what I do. I love making things at the shop." She replied, "Don't you want other people to be able to have that same feeling and love their businesses too?"
I haven't even dipped my toe into the pool--but I am looking at the water.
