Tom Ridge will not be running for Senate in Pennsylvania.
From Politico, his statement:
“After careful consideration and many conversations with friends and family and the leadership of my party, I have decided not to seek the Republican nomination for Senate,” Ridge said in a statement.
Now the race is the Democratic Primary…between Specter and hopefully Congressman Joe Sestak. Toomey, the GOP nominee, can just sit there and await his landslide loss in the fall of 2010, for he is as irrelevant as his party.
