Description"It's been an opportunist playground," a top state Republican Party official said with a sigh last week.

Every time somebody floats his or her own name for the vacant Republican U.S. Senate slot and then "withdraws," the media paints it as yet another disaster for the state party, the clearly annoyed official complained.

Case in point, the decision by state Sen. Kirk Dillard last week not to run. "Rich, we never, ever believed Dillard was running," the GOP official said.

"You guys let him use you for his 15 minutes of fame." Actually, that's exactly what this person has been telling me since Dillard's potential candidacy was first mentioned.
