Unfortunately, I think Bryant will run for re-election and if he does, he's pretty much guaranteed. He's actually younger than I thought (59) and is like any typical far-right conservative by denying his state Medicaid coverage and trying to close down the last abortion clinic in the state, so I don't see why anyone would challenge him from his right.
IIRC, the Attorney General of Mississippi isn't term-limited, so if I were Jim Hood, I would just run for another term in 2015 and hold out until 2019 when Bryant's forced to step down. Presley could run if he wanted to, but I don't see him running either and I think MS Dems will probably end up with a State Rep running. At least that way, Democrats can put more focus on holding KY and trying to win LA.
Yeah, this is where I'm at. If in 2015, Dems pick up Louisiana (a feat that's not entirely impossible), and hold Kentucky, it will be a good day.
If a Democrat get's 40% in Mississippi, that would be great too.
