Obama: Daniels is a 'Serious Person'

Politico reports:

President Obama thinks Mitch Daniels is a “serious person, ” but he’s not going to make any predictions about the Indiana governor’s place in the 2012 presidential field.

“You know, it’s a little early to start prognosticating. I’m going to let the Republicans sort out who they think their standard-bearer should be,” Obama said in an interview with WTHR Indianapolis. “I think Governor Daniels is a serious person. I have some significant philosophical differences with him.”
