Frist would have to deal with the Senate curse.

Yeah . . . but --

Why do senators have a hard time getting elected president? Is it because they don't project leadership? Or because they're self-important blow-hards who hang out in the world's most exclusive club? Is it because they only have contact with voters every six years?

I think if Frist were to run he'd lay out in a compelling fashion what a Frist Administration would look like, and what its priorities would be. His electoral success in Tennessee was staggering. He is a solid conservative. And he'll have the money to run a good primary campaign.

All of the above - basically they are too entwined in the Bowels of Washington.

My only problem with Frist is that we desperately need a Border Control candidate to run in 2008 and i don't think Frist is a Border Control candidate.

The only potential candidates that want Border Control are Owens and Sanford.

Everyone else is squishy on the issue.

I'm for Jon Kyl.

Guys, Santorum is not Presidential.
