I Stand Corrected

Earlier this weekend, I wrote something about John Breaux’s likely candidacy for governor in Louisiana, saying that the fix was in. I now stand corrected. Jim Addison from Wizbang Politics writes that John Breaux announced that he won’t seek the governor’s office. Here’s what Sen. Breaux said:

“I said I would be guided by the attorney general’s opinion, and therefore will not be a candidate for governor,” said the Democrat, who represented Louisiana for 32 years in Congress.

That might be the most honorable decision that a Louisiana Democrat has ever made. In fact, I’d bet that it is.

Jim makes a great point in his post:

Breaux is the only Democrat considered able to compete with Bobby Jindal, so this is a big boost to the Jindal campaign.

Jim, I totally agree. Count this as a GOP pickup in 2008.
