I'm depressed...

about this announcement from a few minutes ago:

Anti-war mom Sheehan will not run for Senate

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Cindy Sheehan, the anti-Iraq war activist whose son was killed in the conflict there, put an end to speculation on Thursday that she would launch a long-shot bid to become a U.S. senator from California.

Sheehan, speaking in front of San Francisco City Hall, said she would not run for the office.

"If I thought that running for Senate would bring our young people home more quickly I would do it in a minute, but I am not convinced that that would do so," Sheehan said.

Cindy running for Senate would have been great fun - I would have shelled out for pay-per-view to see her debate Dianne Feinstein. Now I'm going to have to look elsewhere for comic relief during the election. Bummer.
