No, he should be a unique politician and keep his campaign promise not to seek higher office.

Then again, I think he'd be great.

I think it would be good. Mitch has shown his abilities to hold cost in line and make the hard decisions. Yes, his decisions hurt some individuals. It is unfortunate, but when I look at where we are now I think it was all worth it. We are in a better postion now than we ever have been. Mitch has a good business sense and knows how to manage. I would like to see him run.

I can't imagine inflicting him on the rest of the country.

I agree completely. Although Mitch has done a good job keeping Indiana in a positive place, he's used some terrible tactics to do it and put a lot of people in precarious positions to do so. I think he's too narrow-minded to be able to govern the entire country. He needs to keep his promise and not seek a higher office.

Please no. As an independent not really caring about parties, I think he should stay where is at. He would upset the motions that have been put in place, and the programs that will be implemented by the current administration. If anything I see him returning to the priviate sector and riding out in the sunset

It would be great to have an "actual" Conservative to vote for in the next election. Gov. Daniels has proven that he will do what he says. That would be refreshing. I think he should run, but I think he will need a new and bigger campaign bus.

Absolutely
He is a fore thinking leader. He understands the need for fiscal accountability. He surrounds himself with smart people who develop intelligent strategies and work to accomplish them.

I saw the man at several occasions and listen his speeches.

I do believe he has brain, guts, determination, charm and natural sense of humor to pull GOP to the level it was in Reagan era.

Yes, he has brought responsible governing to Indiana and it would be refreshing to see him do it in a higher office.
