Miss. governor responds to presidential bid rumors
Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour says he’s considered running for president, but he “won’t think about it again until after 2010.”

Barbour’s comments came Wednesday after a speech to Boys State, an annual gathering of high school students for an American Legion-sponsored leadership program.

One of the students asked Barbour if he had considered running for president.

Last week, Barbour dismissed speculation about a possible bid for his party’s presidential nomination in 2012. He reiterated on Wednesday that Republicans should focus on races this year and in 2010.

9. I can only DREAM that the Republican party would be stupid enough to pick Haley Barbour for anything
He's my governor and a mush-mouthed sonuvabitch super-lobbyist (mainly tobacco), white supremist

ttp://www.burntorangereport.com/archives/000646.html and overall asshole and fool

12. Ha! Ha! Ha! Thanks for the good laugh Charles!!
Oh. My. Yes, Haley, everyone is just ready and waiting to line up and vote you into the White House!!

Promise you'll run? It would be nice to sit back and relax and watch 47-48 states vote to re-elect President Obama.

Maybe you can ask Bible Spice to run with you again -- for laughs!! :rofl:

15. PLEASE nominate a fat, cigar-chomping, ex-Tobacco lobbyist from the Deep South...
... with a history of toleration for white supremacists.

I mean, c'mon - you'd think they'd at least try to be credible.
