Should one open up, I'd have to consider it. I feel like I'm just hitting my stride in the state senate. I've got young kids. I've got a very ambitious legislative package. I'm excited about continuing my work in the state senate, and that's really what I'm focused on right now. On the other hand, you can't really rule out other options until they present themselves.
