msnook Likely Candidate 1 Dec 25 2006, 8:51 PM EST by KCinDC

Al Weed is highly unlikely to run again. He's run twice, he is convinced he is not the right candidate for this district. It's sort of an Al Gore situation -- no desire to run, very unlikely, but not completely out of the picture of something big happened. Look for someone else.
