Pawlenty seems to indicate that he's not running for governor again in 2018 (nor Senate for that matter):

I like this news! I think he'd be a strong candidate and a fresh face in MA politics. I know Baker is largely considered to be the favorite to win, but warren would give him a run for his money. Even if Warren lost, it would give him name recognition and would pave the way for a future run for governor / senate / congress. I would likely vote for him in the primary, I suppose I'll have to wait to see who else runs too though.

I know they're unrelated, but how much of a boost would Massachusetts Dems see for Etti since they're voting Warren/Warren at the top of the ticket?

St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman won't run for re-election this cycle. It's believed he'll run for Governor or, if Klobuchar goes for that seat, Senate instead.

Chris Coleman, Tim Walz, and Collin Peterson all three would be pretty good nominees for the gubernatorial seat.

Why would he run honestly? He has always declined doing that in the past.

Yes, but why would you ever leave a safe as safe can be congressional seat? A few of my friends in Ohio have pointed this out to me when I've put Ryan forward.

Well, it will probably be gone in 2022.  Even if some other Dem wins OH-GOV in 2018, Republicans currently have 2/3rds in the state legislature to override the veto, and it's incredibly easy to crack OH-13 between the neighboring heavily Trump districts if Trump numbers are the new norm.

I really think that Kennedy is going to help kill gerrymandering.

If Democrats can't gerrymander, then they should get rid of it.

A Piscopo candidacy would be the most New Jersey campaign we'll probably ever see!

I doubt he would win, but I would not rule out the chance that a Piscopo v. Phil Murphy race that Piscopo pulls an upset.

Even if he doesn't, Ohio has an initiative process that Democrats will probably attempt to use (again) if they can't win OH in 2018.

He's an ambitious guy who is clearly getting frustrated with the lack of opportunities to move up in the House (hence his challenge to Pelosi).
