| Hilarious. National Review says that Michigan Republican sources tell them Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.), the second-termer endorsed by Ron Paul who does a very good job holding down the hardcore libertarian fort in Congress, might try to decamp to the Senate next year: “People are asking him to look at it, and he hasn’t closed the door,” says a Republican operative familiar with Michigan politics. “If [incumbent Democrat Carl] Levin steps down, I think he’s going to run.”
Lil' Fella might actually be dumb enough to think that he can win a statewide race, which is why they're trying to talk him into not running for the 3rd District next year so they don't have to spend the money to primary him out of office. Otherwise, I can't imagine a reason why Republicans, who mostly hate the guy, would tell him to run for a Senate seat he'd certainly lose, even if it's Gary Peters. |
