Daniels did an interview with the Indy Star yesterday and he’s found a campaign theme:

Daniels’ presidential run would take on big issues
But governor says he still hasn’t decided on 2012 campaign

One factor that could push him to decide to run: So far none of the rest of the GOP presidential hopefuls has focused on the fiscal issues to the degree Daniels would like.

In fact, in recent days the talk has seemed to center more around the political sideshow led by Donald Trump, who has renewed questions about whether Obama is a U.S. citizen. That, among other things, led Time magazine columnist Joe Klein to beg Daniels to get into the race, calling the rest of the GOP field a “freak show.”

Asked about that portrayal of the Republican choices, Daniels laughed.

“It’s always good to be held to a low standard,” he said and envisioned his campaign being praised with the words: “At least he’s not a freak.”
