Interesting that he put it on trash day ... - promoted by ryan) [First, a cheap plug for my blog Senate 2008 Guru: Following the Races.] GOP Rep. Richard Baker appears to have taken his name out of consideration for the Republican nomination to challenge Senator Mary Landrieu in 2008: "The Republicans, state and federal, see the Landrieu race as a competitive one and, at the moment, I'm not so sure there's a candidate out there," Baker says. "But I can tell you it is nothing I intend to take on." Baker joins GOP Reps. Charles Boustany and Jim McCrery in that regard.
