Pawlenty doesn’t want to drill in ANWR. Or, at least he didn’t when he was governor of Minnesota. ANWR is only 74 miles to the big pipeline that could carry oil to us so we could tell the Saudis to cram theirs.

Better than Obama Biden, but that’s about it.

Barbour more reliably conservative than Tim “what’s his name”

My guess is the Freep Nation will not like this ticket.

I like Pawlenty. I also like Haley Barbour, but don’t think someone like him would be that good for the ticket. I think Barbour would be good in a Cabinet position of a Republican President. Pawlenty is going to need some money and traction, but if he could get the nomination would have a good chance to beat Obama.

IMHO, the RINOs will love Pawlenty and tolerate Barbour.
Neither will get my vote. I recall Pawlenty was the party favorite to run with McCain until McCain pulled a shocker and chose Palin as his VP.

A liberal milquetoast like Pawlenty stands very little chance against Obama.

It’s probably a little early to be thinking in terms of the bottom of the ticket. Though for the sake of discussion it would probably be a fairly strong ticket. You’re going to get a lot of flame from those who think neither Pawlenty or Barbour are conservative enough but the fact is either is more likely to be the nominee than some of the more vocally supported candidates oft mentioned here on FR.

Count me out. Pawlenty is McCain light mediocrity, and Barbour is another has-been political hack. The time for politics-as-usual is over. The Republicans need to grow come cajones and someone who is willing to fight.

Not my picks.

That said, I love this country, and I’ll vote for WHOEVER the GOP puts up against Obama.

I sincerely implore all FReepers to accept that there is no perfect candidate and that we must unite to defeat the current regime.

2012 is the most important election of our lifetimes.

We must put personal preferences aside and rise to the occasion.

A blind hog would be a magnitude better than the kenyan marxist. I will speak no evil against any opponent of the enemy of all free people—BO is a sick little rat with a psychotic personality.

Way too elitist for me. So is Trump. I like real grass roots Americans like Vince McMahon, or maybe Larry the Cable Guy.

No. Tim was rabidly on the AGW bandwagon and now has backtracked -- shows very strong RINO instincts.

Haley is somewhat conservative. He is not nearly fiscal conservative as Sarah. Haley is also quite connected to the "good ole boys" of the GOP.

Haley would likely resist strongly changing the Statist course we are on. In other words, he would not make a bold move towards Liberty and slashing government.

Doesn’t really appeal to me. Bachmann/Palin or vice versa.

The more I hear about/from Barbour, the less I care for him.

Some comments from his FNS appearance Sunday:

And these:

What Haley Barbour didn't tell Fox News: he lobbied for Mexico on 'amnesty'

Governor Barbour on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on February 27, 2011, said that Barack Obama is “one of the greatest politicians in the history of the United States.”

Does Haley Barbour Have an Immigration Problem?
