Indiana is a machine state. The nomination is Lugar's as long as he wants it. Too bad he isn't retiring.

Ditto that. And worse, yet, the party put up the even more useless nitwit Fort Wayne RINO Paul Helmke to defend the seat.

Even though we're a solid red state the majority of idiot voters pull based on name recognition.
Why do you think we had Lee Hamilton all those years?
