Minnesota Watch: Part Deux
In the first installment of Minnesota Watch, I let you know that both of Minnesota's Senators took a hit in their approval ratings in a new poll. Now it looks like that poll will have a much larger effect than previously believed.
Sen. Mark Dayton, D-Minn., said today that he will not run for re-election in 2006.It's going to be very difficult for the Democrats to keep the seat now. Hopefully the Dems will be able to find a decent candidate (I don't think Fritz is going to run again).
Dayton made the announcement this afternoon in a telephone conference call with reporters.
"I do not believe that I am the best candidate to lead the DFL Party to victory next year,'' Dayton said.
The senator made a brief statement and took no questions.
