Mitch Daniels is one of the best, governors Indiana has ever seen, if not the best. The United States is currently undergoing one of the most financially troubling times since The Great Depression and Daniels has managed to hold this state together.

Forbes magazine listed Indianapolis as one of the top 10 cities to weather this financial crisis, yet another example of Daniels' extraordinary leadership. Perhaps those individuals thinking he has done so poorly should look outside of our state at what is going on around us.

The people of Indiana voted for real change when we elected Daniels to office. He has brought the change this state has desperately needed, and we still can't look past the end of our nose to see reality.
