Its near impossible for a Senator to make the leap to the White House, as they will have to defend a congressional record that often includes compromise votes. Look no further than Kerry's inability to explain his voting on the war and subsequent funding. Best chance for election sits with the governors: Bill Richardson (D), George Pataki (R), Tom Ridge (R), Mark Warner (D), etc. Personally I think Jessie V will make a run at it.
