Ed Schultz Asked To Run For Senate
Hotline On-Call ^ | 01/06/10 | Reid Wilson

Posted on 01/06/2010 8:19:55 AM PST by OldDeckHand

A top ND Dem has asked MSNBC host Ed Schultz to return to his native state and run for Senate, Schultz said today.

In an interview on MSNBC, where he hosts a nightly program, Schultz said he got a call from state Rep. Merle Boucher (D), the House Min. Leader, asking him to consider a bid. Schultz said he had worked hard to get where he was in his career, but he refused to rule out a bid.

"I'm flattered. I'm honored. I can't say that I'm even considering it right now," Schultz said. "I'm in a different place right now. So we're a long way from any kind of consideration."

Fat chance. Now that Hoeven is in the senate race, this seat is a Republican lock.

I’d love to see him run in ND. I don’t think he’s that dumb though.

Remember when Ed was touted on the Today Show as the liberal answer to Rush?

Amazing just how many radio stations carry Ed. I can hardly find Rush anywhere on the dial now.< /sarcasm >

Neither did Al Franken. Hell froze over.

This is certainly a valid point but the fact that Franken *was* elected woke a lot of people up and makes it much less likely that Ed can win. At least I hope so.

The local press is full of nothing but laughter on this. Ed is hated here in ND and seen as an embarrassment.
