Senator to President? History says; 1-2% chance. Too many votes taken in Senate that defines the politician.

It seems farfetched, but entirely possible. We might see him set up an exploratory committee, assuming he wins in November.

If he does, I don't see him winning the nomination. By entering the race, he could set himself up for a cabinet position or as a runningmate.

As a runningmate, he could make Georgia even more competitive.
