This one is a little lite to start a thread but I think it's great to see Duncan Hunter going state by state. I can't wait to see the results show up in the polls.

WASHINGTON The last sitting House member to win 
election as president was James Garfield, who captured the 
White House in 1880.

California Congressman Duncan Hunter says he realizes he's 
up against history as his 2008 campaign moves ahead. But, 
he says, "Somebody's got to win this race."

Hunter faces a crowded G-O-P field, including John McCain, 
Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani, Sam Brownback and Tom Tancredo.

Until Democrats took control of Congress this month, Hunter 
was chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, which 
oversees military policy.

But Hunter is little known outside of Congress and his San 
Diego district. He is a strong opponent of illegal 
immigration who wants fences extended along the U-S-Mexico 
border.

Hunter appeared on "This Week" on A-B-C.
