Barbour, Daniels wait for spring
The timeline is getting a bit clearer, Alex Burns notices:
Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels and Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, two of the biggest question marks of the 2012 cycle, said yesterday that they’ll make up their minds about the presidential campaign by sometime this spring. And Daniels gave a newly specific, end-of-April deadline for making his decision, telling WANE-TV that it “has to come at the end of this General Assembly session, if not before. No later than that.” The Indiana Legislature has to finish work by April 30….
Barbour’s timetable remains vague, but in an interview with the Clarion-Ledger editorial board he said he feels “like I need to make a decision by this spring, and that’s what I intend to do.” Barbour, who’s 63, said running for president would mean choosing “to spend the rest of your productive life doing this.”
