Obama political wing takes aim at Indiana

INDIANAPOLIS - The predictions have been dire for Hoosier Democrats facing their first mid-term election with President Obama in the White House. The President’s approval numbers in Indiana are in the low 40th percentile. The campaign of Republican Senate nominee Dan Coats is baiting U.S. Rep. Brad Ellsworth to invite the President back to the state...Hoosier Democrats have a response. Two doors down from the office of Indiana Democratic Chairman Dan Parker is the redoubt of John Spears, who heads the Organizing for America campaign in Indiana for the 2010 election cycle. Spears worked for the Obama campaign in northeastern Pennsylvania during the epic 2008 campaign. He is now charged with trying to reactivate about 333,000 first-time Hoosier voters who came out in 2008, many of them voting for Obama.

This cycle’s endeavor is to try and get these voters enthused about Ellsworth, U.S. Reps. Baron Hill and Joe Donnelly, and 3rd CD Democratic nominee Tom Hayhurst. The Obama campaign spent $5.2 million in Indiana in 2008

and we can help Jackie Walorski beat Silent Joe Donnelly. (he’s earned the name Silent Joe because he won’t give any local interviews. Just talking points press releases.)

Why are they mad that the republican governor thought of trying to make little kids pay to ride the school bus before them.

All else aside, I am very interested to see what the obama campaign rolls out to support their candidates in November.
They undoubtedly have learned something from their recent failures in this regard and it would be foolish to underestimate them.

The Republican response will be even more educational.
We will see who has leaned what.

Me too, that's assuming we have elections this year.

It's all planned. Iran gets whacked one week before the election and all bets are off. Also, throw in a currrency change (goodbye dollar) around the same time and we're off on the road to Morroco.

Book it.

The icing on the political cake would be Andre Carson getting defeated by Marvin Scott this fall in the IN-7th District race.
