Idk, I find it doubtful he's much interested since he took a pass on an easy Senate run in 2014. He's now making $$$$ as a mining executive & it's not often that politicians cash their chips out & leave the casino, & then return later & cash them back in to play some more; however, the exceptions are the cases in which there's little work to do, & this might qualify. Him running might clear the field, give him the nomination, & clear out any A-listers from running on the GOP side before he runs a 5 month campaign against whatever hapless yokel the GOP puts forth. That'd enable Democrats to take the seat for the 1st time in 24 years.
Huh? The incumbent Republican, Steve Daines, will likely still run. And, first time in 24 years? What? Daines is literally the first Republican Class 2 Senator from Montana since the direct election of Senators.
