Bunning retires!

Damn. I was looking fiveward to seeing this clod lose the election.

Right-wing Sen. Jim Bunning (R-Kentucky) has just announced that he won't be seeking a third Senate term in 2010.

I guess he finally realized he was going to lose - thanks to his own extremism, erratic behavior and statements, and scandal involving his nonprofit.

Despite Bunning's retirement, I'd suspect Republicans are still probably going to lose that Senate seat.

Now if we can just get rid of Mitch the Glitch.
