Senate Schmenate: Pedro for BP?

The Daily News' Liz Benjamin reports that Sen.-elect Pedro Espada would consider entering a possible special election for borough president (if current BP Adolfo Carroin officially lands a White House urban policy gig) if his demand for a significant leadership position is not met. Espada only lost a 2001 primary against Carrion for the BP job by about 4,000 votes. With Joel Rivera, Ruben Diaz, Jr., and possibly Maria del Carmen Arroyo in the mix, it's anyone's guess who would emerge victorious.

One thing is certain. 2009 will not be boring in the Bronx.
