Campbell has already said -- unoffially -- that he's running, and is raising money.

Well, the words don't mean a lot to me, but I do pay attention to the fundraising part. Thanks for the update.

I'm not sure why it's still being treated as a big question.

Well, we have to gossip about something until the primaries start! :-)

Well, no, I mean, why is it being treated as a question by news organizations? Mostly just The Hill, but still. Is there some other indication we're not hearing?

Oh, here we go, an article out yesterday where Campbell says he's Campaigning Hard for a Third Term

"Hell, everybody knows I'm running for re-election. I'm doing a big fundraiser (tonight) in Washington, D.C., and a big fundraiser in Denver on Friday. I've got the best job in the world right now representing the people in Colorado."

...

"What's more, Campbell, 69, has not formally declared his candidacy.

But the Colorado Republican explained that filing any candidacy papers now - one year before a 2004 bid - would force him "to just jump through so many hoops" with federal election officials.

Meanwhile, at least six signs show Campbell is planning an aggressive fight to keep his senate seat."
