Randy Kelly to MnDot?

Randy Kelly for Transportation Commissioner?

It might happen. Or at least that is the subject of a Joe Kimball Minnpost post.

I don’t know what the Senate thinks of their former colleague or what Mr. Kelly thinks is his political future [if any], but accepting an appointment like that [and I don’t know what I think Pawlenty would see as the upside for appointing him] would seem to seal his conversion to the GOP which was actually made in 2001. [And if Pawlenty were to go to Washington, where would that leave him?]

It’s a shame. Randy really is a good man and we’d be better off if we hadn’t rejected him last election, but it seems to me that he’d be better off if Pawlenty chooses somebody else for this honor.
