Yet another reason why someone like George Allen is not a realistic option IMHO. If he wants to be President, then become Governor first and prove you can run something.<<

Yep, what we need is a conservative Republican governor , preferably from a big state - the best would be a big purple state.

George Allen was a governor before he ran for the U.S. Senate. Virginia has a very restrictive term limits law that prohibits anyone from serving more than ONE consecutive term.

No state is more purple than Ohio, but Taft couldn't get elected dog catcher and if Blackwell wins he will be too new to be a candidate.

If there's someone out there that fits the bill, speak up! Otherwise it will very likely come down to Rudy v. McCain which is not exactly a broad set of choices IMHO.
