An Upset ... Hilldawg's days are numbered

Hilldawg was supposed
to win convincingly here.... eeecked by with a 1.8% victory. Essentially a tie since delegates are divided proportionately. I'm guessing she concedes next Wednesday if not sooner. As well, in the 2004 Hendricks Co. Primary, the Rep:Dem voting ratio was 80:20. This time it was 36:64. Quite a swing.

Oh yes, and we have NO Democratic office holders in this county.

Upset

The Obama Campaign

It's been something
like 40 years since Indiana has had a say in a Presidential Primary. The likely nominee is always decided by now. As most of us are aware - this year is different. We have an insider vs a change agent. Some of you folks on here know that I'm generally center to center-right on my politics so I'm stepping out of my comfort zone here. I'm volunteering to help the Obama Campaign in Indiana. I don't agree with everything he says but his messages of hope and action are encouraging.

I find it very interesting
that Obama came to our High School first to speak in Indiana (see circle face waving at Obama). Why is that interesting? Because our entire county does not have any elected Democrats. Because Presidential Primary candidates never campaign in Indiana (at least not for the last several decades).

Anyway, I like the message.
Change. No PAC money. National Healthcare. Energy Independence. FAIR Trade.
