"Throw the bums out!" should mean something. Usually it means "Throw your bums out, but we'll keep our incumbents."
Utah delegates released Bennett from the Senate after 18 years of service. For me, it always came back to his pledge he made in 1992, when he said he'd only serve two terms. He served three. Eighteen years. Plenty of time to get done what you want to get done.
And at this point, I'd recommend to Sen. Orrin Hatch to consider retiring in 2012. Jason Chaffetz, freshman Congressman from Utah's 3rd, will probably run for that seat then, and I'd wager the anti-incumbent sentiment will still be high.
