Dirk Kempthorne for the Republicans in 2012?

Actually that makes a lot of sense, though it isn't something I'd thought about. Mayor, governor, senator, the Secretary of Interior, he seems scandal-free, capable, well-liked, and his principles are those of a very conservative Republican, but his appearance and personal style aren't of the sort that would scare off moderates.

And as long as I'm noting a 2012 possibility, yesterday I saw John McCain talking up the junior senator from Arizona, Jon Kyl. He could be a serious candidate as well.
