Well Amen to that! I like how Gore still has 50% support from Democrats for the nomination. Having a weak Rat top of the ticket would do wonders for senate and house races across the country and depress liberal turnout. From desperation to despondency! I think all the Hillary 2008 talk will only serve to drag down the nominee too.
Roll Call reports the following:
"Sen. John Breaux (D) last week squashed speculation that he was reconsidering a run for governor in 2003. "I've already made a decision not to run," Breaux told the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
Breaux had previously ruled out the race in January. He is considered the strongest candidate Democrats could field for the state's top office.
Breaux has yet to decide whether he will stand for a fourth Senate term in 2004."
Breaux will be only 60 years old in 2004. Zell Miller, another possible retiree, will be 72.
Breaux and Miller are the two most conservative and most popular Democratic Senators. They are untouchable. Miller is the last viable Democrat in Georgia, so an open seat would easily go GOP.
Anyone have news on ousting McCain and Specter?
