Like John Edwards and Barack Obama, Herseth is actually older than her looks indicate. According to her Wikipedia bio, she was born in December of '70, so she'll be old enough to run for the Senate in 2010. And unless Daschle decides to try to take back his old seat from Thune, she may be the most prominent South Dakota Democrat, and would have a good shot at the seat. (I don't really know South Dakota politics that well, though, so there may be some other Dems who would have a good shot.)
