Indiana Congressman headed to New Hampshire

Indiana Congressman Mike Pence. Don't know who he is? Well neither does the rest of America at least for now.

The conservative Republican Indiana Congressman is headed to New Hampshire which will host the first in the nation Presidential primary in 2012 and I think he could be a formidable contender for the nomination.

Pence is the number three Republican in the House and is well received by the conservative base. Pence had been viewed as a strong and formidable challenger to Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh, leading Bayh by 3 points in a Senate poll, Pence ultimately decided against running most likely in order to prepare for a Presidential run.

Pence is a staunch Reagan conservative and a newcomer to the national political scene. He could be very formidable on the GOP side in 2012.

Pence is formidable but I think a Democrat will be elected in 2012, most likely President Obama, though I am still hoping for a Dean Presidency.
