Another Democrat Quits

Becoming quite a trend:

Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., announced today that he won’t seek re-election this fall.

Recent polling showed Dorgan getting clobbered by his likely GOP opponent. It could end up being a deadly year for red State Democrats.

UPDATE: Dodd quits, too. This kinda upsets me – I was hoping that we’d be able to crush a corrupt Democrat in a blue State. This does make it a bit more difficult to win, but I’d still rate this, at worst for the GOP, as a “toss up” State…the stench of Dodd will carry a long way.
