Here is video of Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour talking with Sean Hannity last night about the possibility he will run for President in 2012. Barbour was very non-commital, but he clearly did not close the door to the possibility he could run. He recently traveled to both Iowa and New Hampshire, traditionally the first two major tests in the Presidential Campaign.
Barbour said while President Obama is a charming person, his policies are disastrous for the economy. . . . . (Watch Video)

No, no, no!
He is the stereotypical Republican fat cat.
We need NEW blood.
I love Haley, but he’s not a prexy contender - only a name.
We need someone else.
With Haley as the RNC Chairman, the GOP flourished. He could be one of the ‘fat cats”, but he at least got them organized and demonstrated some leadership. I haven’t seen either of those qualities since.
Same old story, same old song and dance.Do us all a favor and don’t run.
I agree,Steele is terrible.
No way.
Look, he could be the most stalwart conservative, the most honest politician, etc., etc., but a white man from Mississippi? We might as well just hand the election to Obama now.
Not only would a Barbour candidacy write the media’s narrative for the 2012 election (”Mississippi Burning”, and so on), it would virtually force whites suffering with “racial guilt” to vote Obama.
If we’re going to be serious about 2012, we can’t choose a RINO and we can’t choose someone that can be to easily tainted with the “racist” meme.
