Related: About this forum2014 MN US Senate Election- Coleman-R not running.
First Eric Paulsen-R announced that he is not running, Then Pawlenty-R announced he is not running, Now Coleman-R has announced he is not running against Franken-D
Bachmann-R and Kline-R are the two top tier Republican challengers left but they are likely to lose by a double digit margin.

(22,000 posts)That would be a gift. Less money to spend on that seat and more to spend on others.

(4,551 posts)I think even she realizes that voters already sent her a message in November that they didn't like her wasting months of her time running for President. Not sure if they would be happy if she turns around and tries to run for Senate after nearly losing on November 6.
