Will Shurtleff challenge Bennett? Probably not

Believe it or not, some Utahn's are already looking at races for 2010.
Perhaps the most prominent is GOP Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff, who says he's considering running against Sen. Bob Bennett, R-Utah, next year.
This would be a "free" race for Shurtleff, since he won re-election last November to a third four-year term. Shurtleff could run against Bennett, and if the attorney general lost that Republican Party challenge, he would still be in office for two more years.
Shurtleff says he'll decide soon whether or not to challenge Bennett — who has already announced he's running again.
I'm guessing that in the end, Shurtleff won't run against Bennett.
