D.A. race shrinks by one

You know that seat that is expected to open for district attorney in 2009?
Well, one less person is pursuing it.
"I am not going to be a candidate," confirms former City Councilman Dan McElhatton, who is also a former assistant D.A. He says it's "just not the right time, and not the right opportunity."
Probably not bad news for the half dozen others who fancy themselves as replacements for retiring D.A. Lynne Abraham.
