Gov will run again.

Governor tells party she will seek a second term:

"Gov. Kathleen Blanco told officials of the state Democratic Party on Saturday she will seek a second term as governor next year so she can continue to oversee the rebuilding of the hurricane-ravaged state.

'I am not going to quit; I am going to lead the battle,' Blanco said at the regular meeting of the Democratic State Central Committee, the governing arm of the state party she leads."
