He may decide to run but Haley Barbour is more the running mate type. Don't get me wrong I'd love to see a southerner with a conservative agenda as my president.
You did. He served from 2001 to 2009. His name was George W. Bush.
I don't consider George W. Bush to be a conservative. He did nothing to check spending, he did a horrible job securing the border, and he didn't have a conservative stance at all on education.
BTW, I fully expect him to run. I have for a long time. I'll be shocked if he doesn't.
As for Barbour, I think he fits the mold of what a true Conservative would like to see as the nominee. He has plenty of experience, he has shown good leadership skills (Katrina), and he's not afraid to fight with Democrats over the budget. (There's been plenty of that going on with the state House of Representatives).
I'm not going to vote for him just because, he's the governor of my state, but he's certainly on the list of candidates I'll consider thanks to his positions.
That, his multiple gaffes and his status as a former TOBACCO LOBBYISST!
