I'm hoping it's option #1 and he stays FAR away from anything having to do with representing pilots.

I am surprised that the leftists point to the stock market as a tribute to their boy. Isn't it the evil Wall Street that they want to topple? Evil McDOnalds that won't pay $15/hour to flip burgers? Isn't it the institutional investors... you know.. the Koch Brothers and the like that are manipulating the market for their own personal gain? Allegedly. The 1%ers that are so vile that they must be crushed at any and all costs? No.. THAT doesn't define the policies of an administration. The stock market rise is based on the fact that the economy has floundered for a long time and the corporations within it have cut as much fat as is necessary to bolster earnings in the current times. It is all baked into the market at this point. However, there is growing concern that valuations are getting too high. Maybe THAT would account for the implosion of the last week. Maybe not. The market is fickle.
What is not fickle is the fact that there are more middle class Americans on food stamps that at any time in our history. We have a rising debt and deficit that neither the Congress (BOTH parties) nor the WH, (1 party) seem to give a tinker's dam about. THOSE policies lie right at the feet of the current occupant that has decided to phone it in for the last 2 years. Not GWB. Not Bill. Not Reagan.
And as I have said before many times, I appreciate the work the PAC does, I cannot support legalized bribery of public officials that are there to supposedly do what is right. It is abhorrent to me, and yes I know I am cutting my own throat. To hell with all 537 of those people.
And pelosi reid.. reid specifically is largely to blame for the majority of the ills we now have. More so than Barry, because he won't even bring things to a vote he knows BO wont sign off on... That man is cholesterol in the US Congress
Stella's fine, but I prefer Guiness.... I mean good ol' American Budweiser... wait.. that's owned by a foreign corporation... um... Yeungleng? (or however the hell you spell it)

Choice 6: He pulls the "Duane Woerth" - forms a company, negotiate millions of dollars worth of contracts with ONLY ALPA carriers, then leaves after he gets his cut - Joins the Delta BOD.

College has really been dumb downed as well. My little cousin is going through the same University, and program I went through. I kept all my books, and class notes from when I went through it a decade ago. In comparing the syllabus, the workload has literally been cut in half from the same classes I took back then. He will graduate with the same degree I have, but with pretty much half the work.

I hope you never have to do this, but if you sat at the controls of a -900 after all the time in a 757, you'd be bewildered to come up with any stretch of any imagination that it is a suitable, key: suitable, replacement for the 757.
Word is HNL mechanics are going to school for the 900. Islands, here they come. Anyone remember the small provision slipped into the last loa?...
