DENVER - Hours after GOP Gov. Bill Owens said he would not run for the Senate, Democratic Rep. Mark Udall jumped into the race.

"I'm in the race. I'm packing my ropes and I'm getting ready to climb the mountain," Udall told The Associated Press Tuesday evening.

The decision by Udall, son of former Rep. Morris "Mo" Udall of Arizona, came after Owens said he had decided against a campaign because his family is more important than national office.

Owens said he intends to serve out his second term as governor, which ends in 2006, adding that the decision came down to more than "strategy and polls."

:-)

We can win this seat. I hope/think so, anyway.

But I dont know, I'd rather see Salazar get it.

Not that Udall is bad, but I think that there are some better candidates than him. I think we can win too but our chances would be better with Hart or Attny General Ken Salazar.
