It seems like Blumenthal from what I've been hearing really has his eyes set on the Governor's Mansion, Not a Senate seat in Washington.
Naw his first choice is to be a Senator. Always has been. He has been pretty public about that. We just have a problem of having those seats occupied.
Well, hopefully, he'll challenge Lieberman CFL-CT in 2010.
As for the Maryland seat, one of the reasons I am so tremendously disappointed that Donna Edwards lost her challenge to Albert Wynn in MD-04 is that I thought she'd be a fabulous statewide candidate.
Oh well. I think Anthony Brown and Chris Van Hollen are probably the frontrunners for an open seat right now.
