Yes, I just read a similar article where Barbour said he thought Cain could sweep the South.

[dynachrome]

Romney/Christie 2012

If you want 4 more years of obozo, that is....

[AuH2ORepublican]

That proves it, Haley Barbour is a RACIST. /s/

[EGPWS]

Romney/Christie 2012

Obama/Biden 2012

Different names, different pair, different party, SAME AGENDA!

Romney/Christie would resurrect the old Laurel and Hardy phenomenon again however.

[C. Edmund Wright]

Barbour is GOP establishment — this is quite encouraging to see him supporting Cain.

[Jeff Head]

Sounds like Haley endorsed him to me. That's a good thing.

HERMAN CAIN IN 2012 FOR A STRONGER, RESTORED AMERICA

[txrangerette]

Haley Barbour is an establishment Republican.

When he said he wouldn’t run, we had plenty of folks saying, good, another insider we don’t want, isn’t running.

The smart money says, be wary instead of jumping for joy, depending on who it is and why they are cozying up.

Real Americans would go bug eyed crazy if zer0 won, stood at the teleprompter and announced He had political capital and was goung to spend it!

[marty60]

Well well another ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICAN heard from.

[edge10]

That makes two of us.

Art Laffer just appeared on “Special Report” with Bret Baier, on FOX. He heartily recommended Herman’s 9-9-9 Plan, and gave an excellent defense against the charges of increased taxes and higher taxes!

[Baladas]

I bet you Barbour will change his mind when he finds out that Cain is talking about a flavor of ice cream the MSM can’t find.

[trumandogz]

Consider this a B Slap in the face to Rick Perry.

[TexasCajun]

What would happen if Palin endorsed a Perry/Cain ticket?

[Mr Ramsbotham]

There is no conservative like a black conservative, and the reason why is that a black conservative knows why he's a conservative.

[BagCamAddict]

Cain said about Obama:

"He’s never been a part of the black experience in America."

ROFL !!!

[CincyRichieRich]

I think this is genius on Barbour’s part. Why? Glad you asked.

It sends a message to the establishment that Cain is for real.

It puts pressure on Perry, Gingrich, even Romney to do something, say something that boosts their chances...like Perry’s forthcoming energy plan?

[SeekAndFind]

RE: I think this is genius on Barbour’s part.

Could it be that he’s secretly being eyed for the VP slot?

[M. Thatcher]

Actually, the original story in The Hill (linked by Hotair) was corrected; Barbour actually said his wife would vote for Cain.

This article was corrected at 5:20 p.m. to reflect that Gov. Barbour said only that if the election was held today, his wife would vote for Cain.
