1. I like Graham, but he and Edwards need to make up their minds.
They both have 4 options.

1) Drop the Senate bid and run for president.

2) Drop the presidential bid and run for Senator (I like them both, but I think they can both do more good in the Senate, plus neither of them are even close to being front-runners).

3) Run for both, if possible. But say so, and do it soon.

4) Drop both bids and retire from elected office (not bloody likely).

If these guys weren't in the South, I wouldn't be this worried. But having two Senators up for re-election running for President when we've already got 7 (maybe 8) other candidates out there and we need the Senate back desparately has made me worried. The longer they delay in deciding, the more likely it is that these seats will fall into Republican hands. And we will have enough trouble with the Senate next year without this.
