The latest developments:
Massachusetts: Consumer activist and former White House official Elizabeth Warren (D) circulates in the state on a listening tour. Recent polling shows Brown ahead of all Democrats but vulnerable. In the meantime, Rep. Michael Capuano (D) did the expected and announced he would not run for the Senate.
Virginia: Rep. Bobby Scott (D) also did the expected and decided not to challenge former Gov. Kaine (D) for the Democratic nomination.
Wisconsin: Rep. Tammy Baldwin has jumped into the Senate contest for Sen. Herb Kohl’s (D) seat. It is not clear if other Democrats will run. Former Rep. Mark Neumann (R) has also announced, and is likely to be the tea party champion against former governor Tommy Thompson (R). State Assembly Speaker Jeff Fitzgerald (R) also is running.
Hawaii: Rep. Mazie Hirono’s (D) is twice blessed: Rep. Colleen Hanabusa (D) and ex-Honolulu Mayor Mufi Hannemann (D) will both skip the Senate contest. It is now an easier Hirono vs. former Rep. Ed Case (D) contest.
Connecticut: 2012 CT Senate nominee Linda McMahon (R) is now expected to run again and face former Rep. Shays (R) in a primary. There are three Democrats running for the seat.
