Senator Bob Graham will tell you politics is all about tough decisions, and yesterday was no exception. Less than a month after dropping out of the presidential race, the Florida democrat decided to opt out of politics altogether-- announcing he won't run for a fourth term. The move is a blow to both Democrats who were hoping to gain control of the Senate next year, and to Florida voters with whom he is extremely popular.

Senator Graham made waves in Washington by voting against the war, and insisting the Administration is failing in its fight against terrorism. But such tough talk failed to stir voters on the campaign trail. So, with one year before the presidential election, Senator Graham talks about why he ran, why he quit, and what the Democrats need to do in 2004.
