We joked about that at lunch yesterday. I think that would be an ethics violation though.

You can go home again. I just hope her path is bumpy as all get out.

I don't think so, there's always some talk around presidential elections of if a senator wins would the governor consider naming him/herself as the replacement. The only rule I'm aware of is that it has to be someone who is Constitutionally qualified to sit in the Senate, and if you name yourself than your Lieutenant Governor would take over the governorship.
