Baucus casts wide shadow over Montana Senate race

FILE - This Feb. 7, 2014 file photo shows Montana Gov. Steve Bullock, left, introducing his Lt. Gov. John Walsh, as the appointee to the Senate in Helena, Mont. Walsh, standing beside his wife Janet Walsh, replaced U.S. Sen. Max Baucus and is running to keep the seat against Republican U.S. Rep. Steve Daines. Max Baucus’ decision not to seek re-election to the Senate after 35 years opened the door for Republicans to pick up one of the six Democratic seats they need to recapture control of the Senate. But his early resignation after being named U.S. ambassador to China may have bolstered Democratic prospects of retaining the seat they have held for a century, thanks to the value of incumbency. (AP Photo/Matt Volz, File)HELENA, Mont. (AP) — Max Baucus' decision not to seek re-election to the Senate after 35 years opened the door for Republicans to pick up one of the six Democratic seats they need to recapture control of the Senate.
