Unofficially yes Linda has announced if Hastert retires early - <b>Daily Herald</b> December 14, 2006 - "Aurora Democrat Linda Chapa LaVia said Wednesday she expects to run for Congress if U.S. Rep. Denny Hastert retires early.... "[If] he dropped out and gave up, vacated the seat, I'm right there." ...Chapa LaVia is the first Democrat to publicly confirm interest in the post, saying several out-of-state consultants already visited her. 'If I get the opportunity to do it, I would love to do it,' she said." My indirect understanding is you can expect an announcement in the next couple months under the assumption that Hastert will retire at the end of his current two-year term - it isn't definite what Linda's announcement will be, but at this point it would seem surprising if it wasn't a go.
