Washington – Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels has informed supporters he will not seek the Republican White House nomination.
The New York Times reported early Sunday, citing an email message Daniels sent to supporters that read, "In the end, I was able to resolve every competing consideration but one," Daniels wrote.

A Giant Big YAY!
Ugh, too lazy to click the link to see what the one consideration was that he declined to run for president was...
Works for me.
Good move there Mitch,you’ve got some real problems in Indiana to resolve anyway.
The main Establishment guy left: Mittens
The main quasi/establishment/conservative wannbe left: Pawlenty
The main Tea Party/Social/conservative left: Herman & soon to be Sarah
Cain/Palin works for me!
Sarah just needs the right person at the top of the ticket, without the “Mc”.
If this guy had a snowballs chance in hell of winning the nomination I guess it would be breaking news.
Smart move, Mr. Governor.
GOP voters arent drooling morons.
He's in the wrong party.
Maybe he watched Cain’s announcement and realized there is no way he can compete.
His family wasn’t willing to have their privacy trashed.
Can’t say I blame them.
Now is the time for Herman Cain and Sarah Palin to swoop in and get the governor’s support. Build coalitions among those who thought of running - this is what Reagan would do.
All the better for the Hermanator and Sarah. Saw her on Gretta the other night. “fire in my belly” Ummmm hummmmm she’s a runnin!
Daniels is just too establishment for me. Mitt is Waaaaaaay too establishment for me. I am at the point now where I know the bloke able to raise 10.5 Mill in a night has waaaay too many folks livin rent free (aside from the political donations of course) in his head. It is just too close to political prostitution. I am tired of the pay to play access politics of the left. I cannot and will not accept it from the right.
Cain/Palin. Palin/Cain. Either one would be one heckofa team.
A BIG Amen to that!
If I’m forced to choose between Herman and Sarah, I’ll be smiling, dancing and singing. And perhaps too drunk to really care one way or the other :-)
Yes, I have a feeling Daniels isn't ready for the big leagues. He seems to me like the kind of "nice guy" who would run a "respectful" campaign, even as the scumbag rats are lying, spinning, and smearing him into oblivion.
No thanks. Been there, done that.
I want a candidate who is ready, willing, and able to strangle the scumbag rat candidate with his own entrails.
Not unexpected. His wife clearly did not want her dirty laundry on display.
And do so while in high heels.
“I want a candidate who is ready, willing, and able to strangle the scumbag rat candidate with his own entrails.”
Absolutely; I’m sure Cain has Mittens and Neutered, trembling too; wondering what they gonna do now. Money is not gonna help anyone this time around.
