On Fox News Sunday, Mitch Daniels admitted that if a presidential election came down to "height and hair", he "probably wouldn't do very well."
FOX HOST CHRIS WALLACE: Some people have suggested that you don't look presidential.
Barack Obama is 6'1"; you're 5'7". He's charismatic and, forgive me, but some people suggest, perhaps, you're not.
Does that matter?
DANIELS: Well, probably, with some voters.
I've never -- in the limited, elective time I've had -- I've never suggested to a voter what they should consider a valid criterion.
So, sure if it comes down to height and hair, I probably wouldn't do very well.
But I guess that's just something you weigh in the balance with many other factors.
