	There's a misspelling on Robert "The Torch" Tor_r_icelli.

	Thanks. It's corrected now.

	I forgot that current U.S. Sen. Frank Lautenberg had retired once before being prevailed upon to run again to fill Torricelli's seat.

	I know it's somewhat technical, but the prospective 2010 retirees haven't yet had their "careers ended." In real-life, there's the chance that one rescinds a retirement. And in Sporcle-world, there's the fact that I tried to start naming former Senators by geography, going through each state... so I didn't even realize you also wanted current senators until I saw how many blanks I still had... other than that nitpick, this is a GREAT quiz.

	Looking at some of the retirees, I had a thought... by my count I see 36 people who have been SERIOUSLY mentioned as Presidential contenders. 16 of whom have run or at least formed exploratory committees. And then at least 1 that likely will run in 2012 with 1 more that could run in 2012 but definitely holds ambition for later still.

	you're missing Dean Barkley, I-MN, who served from Nov. 2002 until Jan 2003.

	HtomSirveaux:	Jul 1st, 2010 at 20:03 GMT	1 point
	@ryangoesboom.... solved that one now. Sorry for the delay.

	a real condemnation of the electorate--just 21 sitting senators have been defeated at the polls since 2000. 5 died and 51 bailed on their own terms.
