…as long as I only pat my lower back. Click the Mike Pence tag for my earlier posts on this subject.
Mike Pence has not made any announcements that he is running for president. But now he is in the top five!!!
The recent Values Voter Summit included a straw poll for 2012 and
Huckabee won with 29%.
The momentum builds….
I first blogged that Indiana congressman Mike Pence was considering running for President in 2012 on June 17.
Congressional Quarterly picked up on my posted the idea on July 13 (as I already noted).
And now The New Republic also posts the idea (though with the caveat that he was not likely to win).
I notice today that Pence’s blog has now been completely taken down. “This website has been disabled“
Is Mike Pence thinking about running for President? I first asked this question on June 17. Now CQ Politics thinks so, too.
House Republican Conference Chairman Mike Pence of Indiana recently added his name to that list [of potential candidates for president for 2012] by scheduling a trip to Iowa starting July 25 — just before the final week of the hectic July session.
Remember, you read it here first!!
Hat tip to TPMDC.
Is it my imagination, or is Indiana Congressman Mike Pence suddenly all over the national media lately? As I looked at a video featuring the congressman this morning the thought jumped into my head: Mike Pence is thinking about running for President (you read it here first!).
On the other hand, he hasn’t posted on his blog since April 27.
Then again, given the recent luck the GOP has had with social media*, Pence’s stale blog might be better than the alternative.
I doubt I’ll be voting for him.
