Brave, Brave, Brave Sir Robin, a.k.a Minnesota Senator Mark Dayton has done America and the Democrats a favor. He’s not going to seek reelection in ’06. That’s bad news for the Republicans because a dead man would be harder to beat than Dayton. Oh wait, Democrats have already run a dead man and won in Missouri. OK, Dayton would be easier to beat than nearly any living person.
Now there will be a real race. Given the fading Democrat nature of MN, Dems may hold it for one more cycle now that Dayton has indicated that he will be, ehem, retreating to private life and no doubt into a deep, deep bunker. But what is almost certain, with Dayton gone to hide, there will be at least one better senator in D.C. after the mid-term.
