Senator John Ensign, R-Nev., had stoutly maintained that he intended to run in 2012 ... until Monday. At a press conference in Las Vegas he announced that he will not be running for another term in the United States Senate. He told the media that he could not put his family through a campaign. Political experts tell us why Ensign decided not to run now and what it means for the race in 2012.
