Wow. Guess the seat is now Love's for the taking. Question to Zioneer and other Utahns: was there any hint of this, and do you think Matheson is gearing up for a future statewide run? Not necessarily soon, he's only in his early 50s.

I'm guessing one or more of: tired of being targeted, genuinely wants out of politics, future statewide run (not necessarily soon given he's only 53).

Matheson apparently said "Yes sir" when specifically asked whether he's considering Guv/Senate '16.

Romney could also run against Lee or wait for Hatch to retire in 2018. I'd guess he'd be more interested in something statewide.
