Mo Money, Mo Money, Mo Money

Friday, October 15th, 2010

The campaign finance reports for the latest filing periods are up.  Here’s how the candidates are doing and what they’ve got left to spend for the last two weeks of the 2010 campaign. The Dan Coats campaign tells me they raised more than $2 million in the third quarter and have more than $1.3 million […]

When Political Ads Attack

Friday, October 15th, 2010

Mark Massa’s campaign is stepping up its efforts in the race for County Prosecutor. It’s unveiling a new television ad today going after Democrat Terry Curry and his record on sex offenders. It’s pretty heavy hitting. It will be interesting to see how the Curry camp responds.

Thursday’s Thoughts

Thursday, October 14th, 2010

Wow, there’s nothing like two weeks before an election to have multiple story lines pop up all over the place.  So let’s get started. Indiana Democrats continue to accuse Republican U.S. Senate candidate Dan Coats of lying about when he began to pursue his lobbying career.  State Chairman Dan Parker has another news conference slated […]

Terry TV

Tuesday, October 12th, 2010

Democratic candidate for Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry has unveiled an ad that is slated to hit the airwaves later this week.  I have it below.   It’s not as hard hitting as I thought it would be, but it gets his name out, which is most important.   My favorite part of the ad is the […]

21 Days and Counting

Sunday, October 10th, 2010

With three weeks to go until Election Day, I’ve decided to use Sunday mornings as a time to do a bit of prospective analysis on this year’s upcoming contests.  While there’s no doubt there is a Republican wave coming, the big question is whether it will hit shore?    I’m sure it will, I’m just not […]

30 Days Out

Monday, October 4th, 2010

With the election about a month away, I figured now would be as good a time as any to blog about the political lay of the land and what the world may look like on November 3. These assessments are made on a number of factors (conversations with politicos from across the state, campaign people, […]

Massa Hits The Airwaves, Again

Monday, September 13th, 2010

Republican Mark Massa is hitting the airwaves for a second time with an ad in his race for Marion County Prosecutor.   I’ve embedded it in this post.  And for the record, in the interest of fairness, I will be more than happy to post an ad by the Terry Curry campaign should one become available.

Massa Hits The Airwaves

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

Marion County Republican Prosecutor Mark Massa has unveiled his first television commercial. No word yet on when Democrat Terry Curry plans to unveil his first television ad.

Friday’s Follies

Friday, August 6th, 2010

Between shootings and court rulings on gay marriage it’s been a pretty busy week, however there have been quite a few items that have popped up on that are worth a mention or two, so here they are… The Indianapolis Fraternal Order of Police has overwhelmingly rejected the latest contract offer from the city.    Ironically,  […]

Saturday Slatings

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

In a rare joint blogging venture I asked Chris Worden of Indy’s Painfully Objective Political Analysis to tag team with me in covering the local slating conventions of both the Marion County Democratic and Republican parties.   He hung out with the Democrats while I was with the GOP.  His comments appear right after mine. *********** […]
