This is the only guy who makes me nervous

Though I suspect he'll defer til 2016 if it looks like Obama is a shoo-in.

On the other hand, bring it on.

Interesting. Why exactly does Barbour make you nervous? He's definitely got some charm but I kind of feel like his past as a lobbyist and of rubbing elbows with racist groups will be pretty damning.

i thought all repugs were racist? as were many of those "independent" voters i met in indiana. and, yeah, he is really well-liked in the south and, yep, very charming. just something about him that comes off as "presidential"--at least to non-obama supporters. i feel like pawlenty and romney cancel each other out. and, well, gingrich...

I think Barbour comes off like Boss Hog. But, of the experienced politicians who know how to play the game in the GOP field, Barbour probably is the most "likeable."
