For all the talk of Louisiana being their top target, Republicans are sure having trouble finding any candidate to take her on.
State Treasurer John Kennedy ended speculation about his political future today by announcing that he will see re-election.
Kennedy had been considering a run for attorney general but says that after discussing it with his wife, he would like to continue being treasurer.
Kennedy, a Democrat, has flirted with becoming a Republican -- something Rove desperately wanted.
With Kennedy out, the GOP had two other possibilities -- Secretary of State Jay Dardenne and Rep. Richard Baker. But Baker is now also out, leaving Dardenne as the GOP's last hope.
