Halter takes the plunge



Lt. Governor Bill Halter, who shook up the Arkansas political world in 2006 by challenging Mike Beebe for governor before moving to the Lite Gov race, is doing it again.

Halter announced this morning on his website that he will be a candidate for U.S. Senate, challenging incumbent Blanche Lincoln in the Democratic primary.



I'm heading out now to cover the filing period opening at noon today at the state capitol. Lincoln is expected to be there, giving us our first reaction to the Halter news. He is filing on Tuesday.
