Cohen to Announce Monday, Doesn't Want to Appear “Foolish”

Former Lt. Gov. Democratic candidate Scott Lee Cohen says he will announce on Monday whether he's running for Governor or not.

Why Monday? "I have to make sure I have all my ducks in a row," Cohen said in a telephone call. "I don't want to be thought of as a foolish person."

And: "I want to make sure my family can be there ... I'm making sure I can actually win."  

Cohen says he wanted to run from the start, referring to his campaign as a Democratic candidate for lt. governor. He won that race, but was forced off the ballot after personal controversies were unveiled.
