A senior Senate Democratic source told POLITICO this afternoon that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has asked Colorado Freshman Michael Bennet to head the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.Bennet, who won an uphill battle for election to his appointed seat, "didn't say yes, and he didn't say no" in the Tuesday conversation with Reid, the source said. Bennet has been on a "thank you" tour of his state in the wake of his bruising campaign but will need to decide soon on the committee post.
Sens. Patty Murray of Washington and Tom Udall of Colorado had also been mentioned as possible DSCC chairs. – More -
