Cramer can speak for himself on whether he’s going to enter, we don’t need to rely on a guy looking for excuses to drop out.

Cramer is in - Just announced.

He’s not in yet, other people have said he is citing the comments made by Emineth.

After passing on a Senate bid, Kevin Cramer tells @deirdrewalshcnn of challenging Heitkamp in #ndsen: “We're just respectfully reconsidering right now; I'll have a decision by the end of the weekend."

North Dakota scoops! Tom Campbell tells me that if Kevin Cramer runs, he'll likely drop out and run for Cramer's House seat instead. And oil tycoon Harold Hamm has offered to be Cramer's finance chair -

The original calculus for this was factoring in a Heitkamp vs Cramer matchup, where the feeling seemed to be yeah this could be pretty competitive but Heitkamp is a solid campaigner. Then, Cramer said some dumb stuff and national Republicans actively sought a different candidate, and Cramer announced he wasn’t running. Cramer getting back in means we’re back in that previous setting, but with the knowledge that Republicans were worried enough about him to seek a different candidate. Let’s not pretend Cramer is this formidable foe just because he’s the best Republicans could get for the seat.

The fault really belongs to anyone who expects Beet to use sound logic and relevant facts in arguments.
