Two interesting thoughts about the upcoming elections:

1) Almost every single statewide elected office is not being sought by its current holder in the upcoming elections.

So in a time of economic uncertainty, we in 2010 will be having a new slate of officeholders many of whom might be still beginning to implement their agenda and fully realize the reality of their office's full nature.

2) In contrast to this possible trend, Secretary Kemp will be running for re-election as an incumbent.

Is this an advantage or disadvantage for Secretary Kemp?
