The RI Future blog is reporting that Democratic US Senate candidate Matt Brown is holding a press conference today at 3:30pm announcing that he is dropping out of the Senate race. That leaves former Attorney General Sheldon Whitehouse and dark-horse, impeach Bush, Carl Sheeler in the Democratic Primary and Lincoln Chafee and Steve Laffey in the Republican Primary. This is good news for Democrats who witnessed a blood bath six years ago in the Democratic Primary between former Congressman Bob Weygand and Richard Licht and Chafee walked in over the carnage. The tables may be turned this year on the Republicans. Primary day is September 12th.
