As Presidential Race Crashes, Hickenlooper Hints Senate Race

After a more than six-month presidential campaign fails to rise above “1” percent in the national or primary state polls, John Hickenlooper turns to consider the Colorado Senate race he had long disavowed as not the right job for him.

He would be joining a crowded Democratic senate field of more than ten candidates, the top five of whom have raised collectively twice as much as his failed presidential campaign. Although an unreleased poll claims Hickenlooper would be the name identification frontrunner, some observers believe he would face considerable resistance from a party that appears to have moved beyond the Hickenlooper era.
