There was a sense Nov. 13 that Tancredo saw his campaign sinking as he acknowledged he likely wouldn't be elected president. He said Grover Cleveland was the last member of the U.S. House to be elected president.

There's a hint as to why Tancredo didn't want to throw his support at fellow House member Duncan Hunter...

“He said Grover Cleveland was the last member of the U.S. House to be elected president.”

Grover Cleveland was Governor of New York, and never served in the House.

James A. Garfield was the only sitting member of the House of Representatives to be elected President.
