Jim McGovern

US Representative Jim McGovern

Warchest: $313,059

Chance of running: Possible. “I’m happy where I am right now,” he said. “I guess you never say never, but I’ve got two young kids and a wife (who) would probably get a divorce attorney if I entered a campaign right now.”

Pro: He is well-respected and would likely be the only candidate from Central Massachusetts, giving him a base to run from.

Con: He is positioned to become chairman of the Rules Committee, one of the most powerful positions in the House.
