North Carolina Yankee.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Since Yankee so strongly opposes my recess motion, I think he should have this job if that motion fails.  I withdraw my candidacy and change my vote to NCYankee.

The reason I oppose the recess motion is because I feel that its motivated by the personal time requirements of the majority at the expense of the Minority. My semester ends in January and thats when my final exams are. If you go on this "recess" the financial bill won't get done until the end of January.

Also, can you please stop this attitude. You pulled the same thing after the Bow Chicka Bow Wow act passed.

Really.

Thres no need to play this game 365 days a year. I support a recess motion for the Christmas period and will push for one in the new Senate to take effect every year.

I'm against any permanent recess period. We will go on recess once the floor is empty.

^^^This we shouldn't strive to mimic those buffoons in the RL senate. God save us from the mess they are in. We will go when we finish our work.

Some people here do like to think that they have lives. Though what we used to do IIRC was an unofficial do-nothing period on Christmas Day and New Year - perhaps my memory is wrong, though.

OMG I am actually agreeing with you for once.

I would 100% support an unofficial do-nothing period, as long as all pending bills get dispensed with. But there must not be a set date so that there is time to complete unfinished business then when pending business is finished we could recess.

Really.

There was no "attitude" on my part here, my actions were completely logical, and so was my explanation of them.  What I pulled after the Bow Chicka bill falls under a completely different category, and is not relevant.  Aren't you happy that I changed my vote to you? 

I am thrilled beyond belief, to tell you the truth. .

Another reason I withdrew is because, I've re-thought running for this in January.  I have a vacation planned for the last week of January, so it's probably not a good idea for me to become PPT this session.  So Yankee, if you want the job in January, I won't oppose you for it.

We'll see.
