A good man, but without executive experience in government a long shot, and also probably more controversial in his quote trail than Palin would be.

The last thing we need is too many conservatives (especially social conservatives—that means you, too, Huck) in splitting the primary vote. Our country I’m afraid might not survive the outcome of another McCain-type candidate as the only opposition to the Marxist.

Executive experience counts no doubt but over the years Senators have been elected to the Presidency.

16 presidents were senators at one time. They were: James Monroe, John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, Martin Van Buren, William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, Benjamin Harrison, Warren G. Harding, Harry S. Truman, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard M. Nixon and Barack Obama.
