Hoeven Senate Hopes Not Gone?
I've been fairly convinced that ND Governor John Hoeven isn't going to be running for Senate in 2006, but Taking Back ND has an interesting reader email up that may well prove that Hoeven's announcement that he's not running for Senate was nothing more than a calculated ploy.
It sounds plausible.
My thought was that if Hoeven moves to the Senate he may wait to make sure he's got a good candidate groomed to come behind him as Governor. Really, who knows? Outside of John himself that is.
The rest of us will just have to wait and see. But, for the record, this North Dakotan is hoping to see John run.
Insider friends beleive [sic] Hoeven will emerge from hibernation next spring, ready to change his mind about the Senate. The game pan is to simply "hibernate" over the winter to avoid media frenzy and Conrad attack ad. . . .
The plan calls for a massive " Draft John" outpouring at the convention, just coincidently, held in Hoeven's home town of Minot.
It sounds plausible.
