DES MOINES – He's not a candidate, at least, not yet, but Haley Barbour bought lunch today for a key constituency – Republican women.
The Mississippi Republican is “seriously considering” making a bid for the 2012 GOP presidential nomination.
“I'm here again,” he joked March 15, noting he's been at the Capitol twice in the past month and will be back again in a couple of weeks. Barbour, 63, plans to make a decision in April after the Mississippi legislative session is over.
