GOP Rep. Terry Everett (R-AL) Will Retire
Yet another Republican has decided to hang up his spurs. Rep. Terry Everett (R-AL) confirmed months of speculation today by announcing his retirement.
Everett is the ninth House Republican set to retire next year. But unlike the recent retirements of Reps. Jerry Weller (IL) and Jim Ramstad (MN), who are from moderate districts, Everett's district should be much safer territory for the GOP to defend — it delivered roughly two-thirds of its votes to President Bush in 2004.

Another worthless rat abandoning the sinking Republican ship. I guess he decided to quit, because he could not get the tunnel built from Mexico to Canada for the illegals. See quote from The Montgomery Advertiser.
