PunchBowlNews report: Democratic Sen. Chris Van Hollen is now open to running against Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer.
Van Hollen "has received a flurry of calls and is now in active listening mode."
Van Hollen is a progressive and called for an end to aid to Israel, supports an end to the sale of offensive weapons and even said that if the 2-state solution fails, we should consider supporting a "one-state" solution.
Van Hollen said he needed commitments from Schumer on several issues before agreeing to support him for another term as leader. He is also considering a run for president.
