From the Associated Press: quote:
A Dartmouth Medical School professor and former astronaut is considering a Democratic bid to unseat Republican Sen. John Sununu.Dr. Jay Buckey said he is exploring how much support he could muster in what could be a crowded Democratic field... Buckey, 50, of Hanover, said his campaign would focus on using technology and innovation to solve the nation's problems. "We have tremendous strengths," he said. "We're just not using those adequately to address the problems facing the nation."
