- The Sun-Times' Michael Sneed reports that Sen. Burris' decision to skip the 2010 Senate race was due to a combination of poor fundraising and $500-700K in debt incurred as a result of the ethics carnival. Top Dems apparently agreed to help bail him out, contingent on him staying out of the race.
- '10 Senate Fundraising Update: Alexi Giannoulias reported a strong fundraising quarter, bringing his cash on hand to $1.68M. Republican Mark Kirk has around $1M. Archpundit has a roundup of potentially competitive races.
- Kirk will officially announce his Senate bid on Monday.
