Agreed.
Steele's speech is one of the few I recall from the convention that was not prominently featured in the primetime lineup. he was impressive and many of us stated the Reps he was a rising star in the ranks. I'd prefer him as Governor since Senators seem to be leaving me with a bad taste in my mouth lately, but maybe he'd reverse the trend. Erlich should run as an incumbent, Steele for Senate. No rule that states Steele couldn't run for Gov when Erlich's time is up, and vice versa.
Very true. There are plenty of instances of Senators running for Governor. Frank Murkowski did it in Alaska a few years ago. Jon Corzine is doing it in New Jersey right now.
