3. Little to no chance to beat her... |

2. We have open seats in far more conservative areas than NY. |
|
If he wants to run, perhaps he should consider those opportunities instead. We can do a lot better in New York, however.

6. He wouldn't satisfy the residency requirements in most states. |

7. Either way, we've got far better options. |
|
My point is that I wouldn't mind having Ford where he was in Tennessee or as a replacement for Ben Nelson in Nebraska. We won't get a progressive with a chance at victory in those places. NY, on the other hand, we can do a LOT better.

9. Who said this is about "we" ??? |
|
Dodd's decision is about "we"... Ford's is about Ford.
HE may not have better options and may not CARE about what options WE have.

5. Curious- has anyone ever run for Senate in one state- lost- then run for Senate in another? |
|

How about a losing in a southern state- and then running in a northern state?
