CT-SEN: Fmr. Rep. Simmons (R) will challenge Sen. Dodd (D)

Titles says it all really. SImmons is officially in. If I was Sen. Dodd, I would consider retirement and let A.G. Richard Blumenthal or Rep. Chris Murphy have a crack at it.

Tough break for team blue. Still, if defense is only Connecticut and Deleware if Castle enters (Nevada GOP has no bench and the best of the Colorado GOP has passed) this still looks like a decent cycle for us. Dem +3 would be enough to let us run roughshod with our agenda for two years.
