President 2012 Video: The First Lap of the Presidential Race
Pundit Dick Morris offers his analysis of the Presidential race such as it is todayI agree with Dick and disagree as well.
Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels should he decide to run (watch his D.C. speech next week, May 4th at the American Enterprise Institute), will give Mitt Romney fits in the right of center and moderate wing of the GOP. Most of the big GOP donors will pull any of their money away from a late-starting race of Mike Huckabee.
The race will be between Daniels, Huckabee and Romney.
If Daniels runs Donald Trump will not be a factor in the race. If he does not, look for Huckabee to jump in with the Tea Party and battle Trump and Romney.
Everyone else at this point, including Sarah Palin, is noise.
With regards to President Obama, the economy has not dramatically improved and unless gasoline prices drop precipitously, he is looking like a failed, one term President.

President 2012 California Poll Watch: Obama Job Approval 53% Vs. 42% Disapproval
According to the latest USC / LA Times Poll.
President Obama Job Approval Vs. Disapproval:- White Voters – 47% Vs. 48%
- Latino Voters – 62% Vs. 32%
- Total – 53% Vs. 42%
Favorable Vs. Unfavorable:
- White Voters – 52 Vs. 46%
- Latino Voters – 69% Vs. 26%
- Total – 58% Vs. 39%
California is not going away from the lock that it is for President Obama anytime soon. California has become a solid blue state but even at that, Obama’s approval numbers are not that great.
But, no worries for David Axelrod here.

President 2012 South Carolina GOP Poll Watch: Huckabee 17.8% Romney 16.1% Trump 9.9% Palin 8.6%
According to the latest Winthrop University, South Carolina Poll.
Favorable Vs. Unfavorable:- Mike Huckabee – 59% Vs. 11.1%
- Mitt Romney – 53.6% Vs. 16.5%
- Sarah Palin – 47.9% Vs. 32.3%
- Newt Gingrich – 45.4% Vs. 23.1%
The GOP Primary:
- Mike Huckabee – 17.8%
- Mitt Romney – 16.1%
- Donald Trump – 9.9%
- Sarah Palin – 4.1%
- Newt Gingrich – 4.9%
Who do you think will be the eventual nominee?
- Mitt Romney – 21.4%
- Mike Huckabee – 8.3%
- Donald Trump – 7.3%
- Newt Gingrich – 4.9%
- Sarah Palin – 4.1%
This is a good poll for Mitt Romney and demonstrates he continues to be competitive in South Carolina. Keeping in mind the GOP primary calendar and assuming Mike Huckabee runs, Mitt would be coming off a loss to Huckabee in Iowa and a win in New Hampshire. Romney would have the edge in Nevada due to his Mormon influence in neighboring Utah, which leaves South Carolina as a real test of his strength.
Now, should Mitch Daniels decide to run and splits the vote, Mike Huckabee would then likely be the favorite in South Carolina.
Over the next three weeks, the GOP field will be solidifying and then the polls will get serious.
