Is Joe Sestak (PA-SEN) planning a comeback?
I've received an email and a phone call inviting me to a "thank you" event for my support during last year's Senate race. These are not unusual, but six months later seems odd. Anyone know if he's pondering running for something else?

2. What is PA-SEN supposed to mean?
It's not as if he is a PA senator.

3. which is why I didn't say "Senator Sestak"...
This is common terminology for an election district, instead of having to say "former Senate Candidate from Pennsylvania".....which I've now had to say.

4. OK, but...
"This is common terminology for an election district"

he was running for state wide office, not for an election in a specific district, right?

I'm also curiuos, if they use PA-SEN for former senate candidates, what terminology is used for current senators?

5. Run for his old House Seat? Run for Governor in 2014?
He's too energetic to sit out political races. I'm guessing he may run for his old House seat (which will be affected by redistricting). He has also been mentioned as a possible candidate for PA. Governor in 2014, which would involve starting to run intensely in 2013.
