-Polnut and Nix were both presidents, senators and probably some other offices like Governor before.
A long, long, long time ago, back when the real life US President was a shoot from the hip cowboy Texan still, ole Polnut was Governor of the Mideast. However, out of respect for his subsequent quality, we don't speak of such things round here. He was more recently Governor of the NE from which he launched his Presidential campaign in 2011. He was Senator for a short stint in January 2012 and in the summer of 2013, both from having won specials. Nixy baby was Governor of the Northeast before he took Scott's seat as NE Senator in Oct 2012, he was reelected in February and retired to run for Prez in June. He should have stayed, he was more fun that first stint in the Senate, been more moody ever since.
-Yankee, I don'( know, because he's senator for really a long time .) I was the RPP Vice Presidential candidate in Feb 2009 with DWTL and I had campaigned aggressively, which was my only selling point. I have been told by some on left later on that I was an RPP lackey/hack during that period, which is really interesting since I left the site for six weeks and only returned just in time to vote in the April elections that year. Duke had hit an inactive spell during that period and I was considering running against him for Governor of the Dirty South in the next election. However, PiT asked me to run for Senate to succeed him (he went on to lose the Presidency by 1 vote) something I had never considered before and after casing the joint and getting passionate on some things going on in the chamber (namely the GM issue and the confirmation of an AG with little scrutiny) decided to go with that instead.
