Former Colorado congressman Bob Beauprez, who lost a bid for governor to Bill Ritter in 2006, is considering entering the race for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Michael Bennet. From the Colorado Springs Gazette:
If Beauprez runs, he’ll fill a big blank in the state’s political picture. As the flush of their November 2008 victory wears off, Democrats in Colorado are looking less invincible these days, and Republicans have been enthusiastic about the possibility of unseating Gov. Bill Ritter and Bennet, who was appointed by Ritter to the Senate seat vacated in January when Ken Salazar became President Barack Obama’s interior secretary.
