Description | Nine months before Election Day, Republican Mike Enzi is mum about whether he will ask Wyoming voters to send him back to the Senate for a third term.
Enzi’s low fundraising numbers and the Senate GOP leadership’s repeated snubs of his bid for a coveted seat on the powerful Finance Committee have fueled speculation that the senator may leave Congress.
But with a Democratic opponent yet to emerge and a likely smooth path to reelection, Enzi has the liberty to take his time and raise just enough money to win six more years in the Senate, Republicans say. The staunch fiscal and social conservative and party loyalist, who has held a number of public offices and was once an owner of a shoe store, won his second term in 2002 easily, capturing 73 percent of the vote. |
