There seems to be a movement afoot to convince Presidential candidate and former Arkansas Governor to abandon his long-shot bid for the White House and perhaps throw his hat into the Senate '08 ring against Arkansas' Democratic incumbent Mark Pryor.

Both the National Review and the Weekly Standard have floated that possibility today and I think it's a great idea. Given the sheer number of seats that the Republicans will have to defend just to stay at 49 in the Senate, putting another Democratic seat in play would be huge.

As it stands, Louisiana Dem Mary Landrieu looks to be the only Dem incumbent with a real race on her hands. Compare that to strong challenges to GOP seats in places like Minnesota, Virginia, and New Hampshire and we need all the help we can get this fall.

If Mike Huckabee really wants to endear himself to the GOP faithful and build his base for another run in 2012, what better way than as a sitting U.S. Senator?

Do it, Mike!
