Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA), has decided to stretch the election season still further.

She has announced her candidacy for another term in the 2010 election.
As of today, that Election Day, 2 November, in 2010, is a mere 1350 days away.

She wants to raise $20 million to do it.

From her web site:
“Elected to a third term in 2004, she received more than 6.9 million votes, the highest total for any Senate candidate in American history.”

So why start so early?

Has someone found a secret door in the campaign laws?
