Perhaps the DSCC will recruit Eaves to run against Thad Cochran in 2008? However, two statewide losses in two years might doom his prospects for ever getting elected to anything in Mississippi.
I'm pretty sure the state party has chosen to make the serious play for the 3rd district House seat (Pickering is retiring) instead of the senate seat.
Unless Cochran retires, that is, then Mike Moore steps in and is the favorite. Sorry, but no Democrat is the favorite in an open Senate seat in Mississippi.
