Good news for Democrats/Specter in PA – Tom Ridge wouldn’t run against Toomey

After all the speculation and the recent random polls, former PA Gov. Tom Ridge today announced that he would not seek the GOP nomination for Senate next year. In a statement, Ridge said he had been heartened by the support and encouragement he received from within the party and that it had been a difficult decision for him. He expressed a desire to still be involved in the party’s development. From PA2010:

“To those who believe that the Republican Party is facing challenges, they are right,” Ridge said. “To those who believe the Democratic Party is without its own difficulties, they are wrong. No one party has a monopoly on all of the answers. The more important view, in my mind, is that we remember, whether Republican or Democrat, we are foremost Americans. And as Americans, we have always overcome challenges when we put partisanship aside and solutions first.”
