Most people don't pay too much attention to the price of gas, for instance, because you have to pay it regardless of cost.

And I don't expect Morgan to run for office. He'd have to take a big drop in salary. And work harder.

He almost ran last year. He backed down once he saw the price tag and realized how much abuse he and his family were going to take in the process. For the record, I'll vote for just about anyone in favor of legalizing (and taxing the living out of) cannabis.
