A Great Political Add

I think Mitch Daniels has been a pretty good governor for Indiana. He has clearly worked hard on bringing new companies and jobs to Indiana as well as improving Indiana's business friendliness. While I don't think daylight savings time has any sort of significant impact on Indiana's business climate, I must admit that I have kind of liked the extra daylight at the end of the day.

I think the lease of the Indiana Toll Road was a great idea and a great deal for Indiana. I do think that the toll-road-area Republican legislators should have withheld their "yes" votes until more of the money was funneled to the toll road counties. But I can't blame Governor Daniels for their lack of political savvy.

The Governor's education ideas are vastly different than what I think are the best policies for having successful public schools. In my opinion, he is not a friend of public education. Too bad.

Regardless of any agreements or disagreements, this is one GREAT political add.
