The effort by the out-of-stater who started a “Draft Jim Folsom, Jr. for U.S. Senate in 2008″ blog last weekend looks to be too little too late as qualifying ends Friday. Though I think a lot more effort than this would still have been too little to get the Lt. Governor into the Senate race.
Nice of him to send the email this way though. And to Daily Dixie, too.

That guy is a nutt. Google him.
Not going to happen. As a Cullmanite, nobody respects the Folsom name more than me, but he is not going to run in this Senate race. His sights are squarely set on 2010. I said nearly a year ago that Bud Cramer would be the strongest possible candidate who might actually consider running. Now that he’s retired, my guess is that he will become a lobbyist, maybe for the anticipated John Breaux/Trent Lott joint venture. That leaves us with Vivian Figures.
