Here is a link to the video of Barbour’s appearance. I am working on getting it embedded right here, but having some troubles so please click through for now.

Have you heard of the Daily Yonder? A website for all things rural has a story on Barbour’s trip to Iowa last week.

The McComb Enterprise Journal looks at Barbour as a 2012 candidate and take a skeptical approach to the governor’s chances. From the editorial: “Being chubby and talking with a deep Southern drawl may not sell well outside of Dixie – particularly in contrast to Barack Obama, the well-sculpted, cosmopolitan, gifted orator against whom Barbour most likely would be asked to run.”
