Someone was recently saying that announcements should be made only in cases where Republican congressman are running for re-election. The rest may be presumed to be retiring. I wholeheartedly agree.

How did Kean do in this seat in the Senate race? I assume he won it, but by how much?

Does anyone else think Ferguson may end up ressurecting his political career, in say 10 or even 20 years time, when things might be different in New Jersey? 

It's certainly possible, although there's nothing special about Ferguson. In 10 years he'll have been eclipsed by other nondescript big-pharma Republicans.

Holy hell, now this is a surprise—Mike Ferguson is calling it quits.

This is good news for Frank Lautenberg, especially if Kean runs.  Barring a primary loss, this definitively keeps the seat for Lautenberg, even though he still would have beaten Kean anyway.

Kean's not running.
