Mitch Daniels' Decision Not To Run For President Leaves GOP Floundering
WASHINGTON -- Back to square one.
The Republican Party is once again in search of a candidate to unite it after Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels dashed the hopes of many in the party by deciding not to run for president.
The fallout is two-fold: It will renew pressure on New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan to consider a run and could potentially lure others who were waiting on Daniels' decision into the race .
Second, it initiates a shift of GOP money and operatives toward either Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty or former Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman, the current front-running alternatives to former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney. Pawlenty advisers said they anticipated recruiting big money funders who might otherwise have supported Daniels.
But Daniels' withdrawal may help Romney more than anyone.
"It's important," one senior Romney adviser told The Huffington Post. "Obviously, we don't know if [Daniels] would have caught fire, but he certainly had the buzz going to make a big splash."
Another veteran GOP political operative, who is not affiliated with any candidate, said, "The nomination is now Romney's to lose."

I need me a Leader! So Daniel is Leaving the GOP and it would seem there will be a 3-way this time....
GOP, Dems and The Fox Party.
Did Donald Trump ever say what he was going to do as President? I know he isn't running, but what was his platform?

His platform was to scare everyone in the middle east into believing that things could be a lot worse and that they better be very glad Obama is in the White House
