I love Santorum, but who was the last Republican Senator to win a Presidential election?
It's been a long time.
Um... did anyone mention Sean Hannity?
I agree with you, unless it is a Senator who has some kind of executive experience in his past.

While I agree, what you're failing to realize is a Dem Senator may run too, Hillary, making your point irrelevant...
Your question may have been rhetorical but... Harding was the last Republican Senator to move into the White House.

That would be Warren G. Harding. Before that , Wm. McKineley.
Not particularly great presidencies were they? Both died in office, incidentally, both from Ohio....interesting that Ohio is still a player.
Before that, I think it was Garfield (elected to Senate same time as Pres). He got shot, also...I think I am starting to see a pattern here.
I am thinking that Voinovich won't dare run for Prez.
