so now that Jim Jeffords is retiring, there will be a mad dash for this senate seat. Of all the Democrats out there, I would say I like Deboroah Markowitz, the secretary of state, the best. But if Howard Dean can somehow pawn off the DNC to someone else, I think he would instantly be the frontrunner and star in the senate for other wannabe Presidents to contend with.
The Cook report has this as a toss-up; I think that is being a bit generous to the GOP. Without Jeffords to run against, how will the GOP nominee raise money (unless it is against Howard Dean, but that won't be enough to overcome Dean's HUGE cash advantage from the internet and all his presidental donors)? How will they get enough support in this flaming Blue state for a national office?
This will be a fun one to watch.
[UPDATE: HoHo says no-no via his aide 2:40]
