MD-SEN: Top Republicans are trying to woo Larry Hogan (again). He's still not interested.

[RandySF]

Two years ago, top Republicans in Washington aggressively tried — and failed — to recruit then-Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan to run for the Senate. Now they’re testing the waters once more.

Sen. Steve Daines (R-Mont.), chair of the Senate GOP’s campaign arm, called Hogan earlier this month, according to a GOP operative familiar with the conversation.

The two connected in what the operative described as a talk “opening a channel.” But during his chat with Daines, Hogan made it clear that his eye is not currently on the Senate.

“The governor reiterated that he has never been interested in the Senate,” the source told POLITICO.

1. Interesting. Sounds like he doesn't want to be party to the current GOP at the federal level.

Too bad, he'd be a positive in the Senate...if he was running in say, Arkansas.
