"I'd prefer Asa Huchison."

I agree 100%, especially since Rockefeller is pro-abortion (which not only makes him less likely to gain my support, but makes him less likely to win a general election as a Republican in socially conservative Arkansas). Do we know for certain that Asa is running? Asa chickened out of running against Senator Blanche Lincoln last year, a race that I think he would have won (Lincoln won by only 56%-44% against severely underfunded state senator Jim Holt, and President Bush carried the state by 54%-45% despite the fact that Kerry never really gave up there).

Indeed, I think Asa could have won, but I think he was hoping to be the Secretary of Homeland Security. Now that he isn't going to be, he will run.

He essentially said that he was gonna run for sure before Kerik exploded, then he backed off, but now that Chertoff has the job and not him, I'm pretty sure he's gonna run.
