Gallup: Pro-Choice At Record Low

One day before his visit to Iowa, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour will be traveling to New Hampshire. Despite denials, this looks suspiciously like the itinerary of a presidential candidate. Barbour is well regarded in Republican circles for his handling of Katrina and his highly successful record as Republican National Committe chairman during the 1994 "revolution." But he also has extensive K Street connections, middling to poor Cato Institute rankings on fiscal policy, and -- as I reported on the main site -- he has now raised taxes on a less-than-affluent group of Mississippians.

My God, I certainly hope this is correct! Haley Barbour would make an outstanding Republican candidate for either President of VP. His traditional conservative views/values and his lawyerly tenacity in arguing conservative principles is exactly what is needed in 2012 to combat the radical liberalism of Obama and congressional Democrats. My ideal political ticket would be Newt Ginguich and Haley Barbour, in whichever order possible!!!!!
