I think it's worse than I originally believe. Not only is TWC undoing the fix that my representative helped facilitate, but they retroactively... - Qale Feb 6, 06:53 4
- Ugh! And looking into it they don't have a waiver for non-fraud overpayments like other states and the feds allow. I'm so sorry. - Krusty Feb 6, 07:30 2

        I agree. He's probably better off going for governor where he can still make a name for himself nationally if his end goal is even higher office. - Krusty Feb 6, 07:34
    - I think Wolf has said he would not run. -- nm - Dano Feb 6, 07:07 2

        That's what I get when I watch it too. Everything seems so familiar...and it's because so much is stolen/inspired from that movie. -- nm - Flavorize Feb 5, 22:12
