This impacts New Mexico, but also Democrats in general. Senator Bingaman (D-NM) announced his retirement today. He will complete this term, then retire.
Sorry for the short diary, but I thought this was important to get out amongst all of the various anti-freedom activity in WI, the middle east and elsewhere. My personal reason for caring about Senator Bingaman is that he is the one that initiated a congressional inquiry into why UNUM Provident was attacking my husband - long before "healthcare" was anyone's watchword. If they call our house, they have to explain to the senator why they are doing it. With him leaving, I am not sure what will happen.
