He wants to have more time to spend with Dodd?  What will Hot Bottoms think?  Maybe he wants to spend more time farming pot in Ogunquit??

Three today: Frank, Stupak, and now John Paul Stevens, the leader of the far left-wing bloc on the U.S. Supreme Court.

If Frank is retiring, and this isnt some late April Fools joke, it is because his internal numbers look bad, some bad news is about to surface, or he has a health issue.

It it is the first option, then November is going to be freakin' sweet.  Frank's district is gerrymandered in a way that even embarrasses Democrats.

It could very easily be all three.

He'll probably go back to running male brothels out of his residence.

If Barney Frank Is Retiring, We'll Know Soon

I would note that if Frank is indeed retiring, we should hear a lot more buzz between now and the May 4 filing deadline. The only other Democrat currently on the ballot is a LaRouchie. Frank is way too loyal a Democrat to leave his party without a strong candidate as his successor, so my guess is we'll hear about some state legislator getting his campaign set up in the coming weeks.
