I don’t believe DeMint or Hunter has a chance.
Palin’s campaigning for McCain is deeply disappointing to me, however: his re-election could bring in amnesty before 2012, which could in turn get Obama re-elected.
I wonder, who is our most conservative sitting governor?
It’s hard to quantify “most conservative”, but, personally, I’d start with the group of governors who declared that they’d reject the stimulus money last year and narrow it from there. That’d be Sanford, Jindal, Palin, Barbour, Riley, and Perry. I might have missed some others, plus Palin is no longer a sitting governor and Sanford would be a non-starter now for obvious reasons.
Barbour?
