Poll Watch: 53% Say They Are More Confident in President Obama as Commander in Chief Since Bin Laden Was Killed
According to the latest Gallup Poll.
The overall percentage saying bin Laden’s death gives them a lot more confidence in Obama as commander in chief is similar to the 35% in the same poll who give the president a great deal of credit for the success of the mission.
President Obama will need a whole lot more of a bump than this to affect his re-election prospects.

President 2012: Mitch Daniels at AEI Today Talking Education
U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan and Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels
Mitch Daniels does AEI (American Enterprise Institute) today.
The 2012 buzzards are circling over a number of potential candidates in light of a GOP field thats currently failing to impress either side of the aisle. Looking past the been there, done that
candidates, many are anxiously watching to see which fresh names may be up for the political version of the Boston Marathon. And that gaze is clearly turned toward the Republican governor who famously declared last year that a truce on social issues would be needed to turn due attention to the economic crisis.Indiana’s Governor Mitch Daniels said he would announce his presidential intentions after his states legislative session closed on Friday. Since then, no word, but speculation aplenty. Daniels, who was budget director for the first part of the George W. Bush administration, said Tuesday that he has chatted with his former boss about a potential run for the Oval Office. Would I like to? No, Daniels said when asked on Fox whether hed like to run. What sane person would like to? But still, no announcement.
Daniels comes to AEI tomorrow to talk education reforms specifically, his scorecard for the 2011 legislative session. As the Weekly Standard notes, Daniels aims to take the initiatives beyond even that accomplished in Florida by Jeb Bush (vouchers, greater accountability, merit pay).
The pundits will be looking for clues in his speech. But, time is running anyway – fish or cut bait, governor.
In the meantime, Mkhe Huckabee’s HuckPAC is having a fundraiser in D.C..

Day By Day May 4, 2011 – Choice
Day By Day by Chris MuirSpeaking about choices. Did you read about how the Obama Administration knew about the location of Osama Bin Laden for three years and how the President was conflicted on what to do?Looks like the good choices President Obama made was to hire Hillary Clinton and Leon Panetta. A bad choice was Valerie Jarrett.
And, release the Bin Laden photos already. Talk about delayed decisions – sheesh…..
