Once again, I have a lot of little things to report on that worth a mention or two so here they are. Indiana State Treasurer Richard Mourdock is formally announcing next week he’s going to challenge incumbent U.S. Senator Dick Lugar.   Mourdock was reportedly at C-PAC making the rounds and made a lot of contacts […]

Since today is Super Bowl Sunday and politics is probably the last thing on your mind, I’ll try to be as brief as possible while talking the latest gossip, rumor and blatant innuendo. Mark February 22 on your calendar at Republican State party headquarters in downtown Indianapolis.  That is reportedly when and where Indiana State […]

On a very cold and bitter Saturday morning, about 150 people who are mad at Dick Lugar about something, gathered just north of Tipton, Indiana to begin to plot his political demise.   They represented the various factions of the tea party movement across Indiana and they claim to represent nearly 350,000 Hoosiers.

The curse of an election season that has a lot of focus on the national climate as well as control of the Indiana House of Representatives is that it’s real easy for a lot of candidates to get lost in the shuffle.  If you want to know what I mean, I’m talking about the races […]

I had a couple minutes today so I decided to do some cruising through Facebook just to see how some of Indiana’s candidates are doing with their social network worlds.   I tried to use campaign Facebook websites where possible.  Now this is not to say whether your “friends” will translate into votes, but I think […]
