Shortest Campaign in History

Colorado Congressman Mark Udall announced yesterday he would run for Senate. Today, Colorado Attorney General Ken Salazar announced his intention to run, and to avoid a primary fight, Udall pulled out.

Udall, 53, had announced his candidacy just one day earlier. On Wednesday, he deadpanned: "I think maybe this was the shortest Senate campaign in history."

We would have preferred Udall, as he's more liberal than Salazar, but we like Salazar too.
