They all can't be president. Many could serve as well or even better in the House or the Senate.

We often have a tendency to put all our attention and energy on the presidential race, but we need good Democrats throughout government, statewide and local as well. A great Democrat in the White House cannot accomplish much if he doesn't have progressive voices throughout government.

5. Bullock, on Maddow's Show, Stated He's Not Interested In Running for the Senate

Bullock mentioned he’s not interested in doing legislation. (The Montana legislature only meets for 90 days every two years.) I liked Bullock but don’t think he’s Presidential material.
