Huckabee: Won't Run for Senate
2008-03-08 09:28am

Former Republican presidential contender Mike Huckabee said Friday he won't run against Democratic U.S. Sen. Mark Pryor.

The former Arkansas governor and GOP candidate said in an interview with The Hill, Congress' daily newspaper, he is "decompressing" from his presidential bid and had no interest in challenging Mr. Pryor.

In February, he joked about the prospect. "There's a greater chance that I would dye my hair green, cover my body with tattoos and go on a rock tour with Amy Winehouse," he said.
