Overview: The Field of 2008 Republican Presidential Prospects
The most frequently mentioned 2008 Republican presidential prospects include five U.S. Senators (Allen, Brownback, Frist, Hagel and McCain), three Governors (Huckabee, Pataki and Romney, all of whom will be former Governors come January 2007), two former elected leaders (Gingrich and Giuliani), and, despite her repeated disavowals of interest, the Secretary of State (Rice). These eleven have a tremendous range of experience from pastor to doctor to naval aviator to professor. Their philosophies range from solid social conservative to moderate. They come from every part of the country -- from the Northeast (Giuliani, Pataki and Romney), the Midwest (Brownback and Hagel), the South (Allen, Frist, Gingrich, Huckabee and Rice) and the West (McCain and Allen, transplanted). On Inauguration Day Jan. 20, 2009 the youngest, Brownback, will be 52 and the oldest, McCain will be 72. Three have served in elective office for 20 or more years (Gingrich, McCain, Pataki), while others have more limited experience in public office (Romney) or have not sought elective office (Rice).
