"SNIP....

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders, who is leaving her role at the end of the month, has floated the possibility of running for Arkansas governor in recent private conversations, CNN reports.

“Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson was re-elected just last year, so unless he steps down early — or is appointed to something — the governor’s office in Little Rock isn’t open until January 2023.”

I wouldn't be surprised in the least if she got elected. Her biggest hurdle is she's a woman though. AK has never had a female governor. They may not be ready for one yet.

I haven't seen any females who weren't model-slim and conventionally beautiful.

Better one red state than on the national stage. I’m thinking she’ll land where they want to hear anti “Democrat” spew 24/7/365.
