Report: Virginia GOP Rep. Tom Davis Mulls Retirement

It's already been reported that Congressman Tom Davis (R-VA) has ruled out a Senate run, but now GOP sources are saying that he's thinking of quitting the House, too.

If Davis does choose to retire — and an announcement could come as early as Thursday — his rapidly blue-trending suburban seat would stand a good chance of falling to the Democrats next year.

Interesting. I can't imagine he's abandoned his ambitions for higher office, so I wonder if he thinks he'll be better positioned to run against Webb as a retired congressman, rather than risking being "congressman who lost his seat."
