I always step back and look at - you know, look at my background in playing team sports my whole life and taking that approach into Congress. It's not about me going, and you know, feeding my ego going to Congress.
A lot of people are in politics to make friends, too, instead of making positive change. They're worried about getting re-elected.
People question me all the time about my experience. They question my experience in politics, and the first thing I always tell them is yes, I have no experience raising taxes over and over. I have no experience increasing the debt in a state.
It's been in the back of my head for five or six years, but more on the local level to get involved and try to create a better environment for my children and grandchildren.
