I think craigs has put his finger on the runner-up, U.S. Route 50.

What about I-80? From memory, it passes at least through Sacramento, Cheyenne and Harrisburg PA. And probably a bunch of "Flyover Country" capitals too.
Add Baltimore, Princeton, and Trenton as former National seats of government.

You can also add Charleston (SC), Exeter (NH), Fayetteville (NC), and Portland (ME) as well as a bunch of other territorial capitals, Native American capitals, and colonial capitals.
