Of course he will be running for office. Most if not all the Democrats in Washington, Phoenix and Tucson along with a sizable majority of the GOPe think of this as the “Gabby Giffords Congressional Seat". And who better than Mark Kelly-Giffords to sit in it for the next 30 years or so?
I think former Gifford aid, Ron Barber is the current placeholder, but assume he will be convinced to ‘retire’ so Kelly-Giffords can take his rightful place in the Gabby Giffords seat.
Damn, just writing this almost made me puke, but I think it is correct.
