Governors Races Dark Horses
FILE - In this Jan. 29, 2007 file photo, South Dakota State Sen. Scott Heidepriem, D-Sioux Falls, listens in Pierre, S.D., during discussion of his bill to create legislative ethics committees and codes. Even Republicans were looking at Democratic Attorney General Andrew Cuomo as a lock next fall to succeed retiring Gov. David Paterson and claim the seat long held by his famous father, Mario Cuomo. Not anymore. Once Scott Brown showed that Democrats in Massachusetts couldn't keep hold of the late Edward M. Kennedy's Senate seat, what seemed politically impossible in the 2010 elections has at least some degree of plausibility. (AP Photo/Joe Kafka, File)
