    Ex-N.H. Sen. Smith to Seek Graham's Seat

    Former New Hampshire Sen. Bob Smith, hoping to represent his newly adopted home state, said Wednesday he plans to seek the seat of retiring Sen. Bob Graham.

    Smith, a Republican who moved to Sarasota in May, told The Associated Press he will formally announce his candidacy next month. If elected, he would become the first U.S. senator in more than 120 years to have represented more than one state.

    Somehow, I just don't see him winning.

    I remember Bob Smith as always being somewhat of a kook. Maybe that's the attraction of the Graham seat.

    Man, I'd have to SERIOUSLY think about voting for the Democrat if Smith got the nomination. And I lived in Florida.

    Yup--he is something of a kook.
