We haven’t elected someone to the White House with just the House on their resume since 1860, and that was a freak 4-way race.
Except of course for James A. Garfield in 1880 who was a sitting member of the House of Representatives and a Senator-elect from the State of Ohio when elected President. He became President-elect and then President, and then dead soon thereafter.
Quite a guy...

Not many have tried. If the nominee is congressman or woman, he or she can win.
But hey, amnesty, gw, individual mandate in obamacare are fine so lets just go with the serial adulterer.
We can stop radical rightwing social engineers!
We haven’t elected a woman either and we hadn’t elected a black man until obama. There is always time for a first.
