Some notes from the campaign trail
Giving Kennedy Credit
Although Melina Kennedy and I have had some differences, I have to give credit where it is due. She deserves a round of applause for calling for an end to the partisan bickering over jail overcrowding. Sources tell me her campaign is extremely annoyed with the Democrats on the City-County Council for their Wednesday night shenanigans with opponent Carl Brizzi. I still believe she will have a tough time in this race, but she deserves credit and I’ll be the first one to stand up and make sure she receives it.
Who Is Monroe Supporting?
I’m no big fan of current City-Council President Monroe Gray these days, but he made me chuckle. The Republican-oriented web blog Fix Indy Now has a photo of Gray munching on popcorn and drinking Pepsi. Seems like no big deal, but if you take a close look at the cup he has in his hand, it makes you wonder who he’s supporting for County Prosecutor. But the way he’s been acting lately, there doesn’t seem to be much of a question.
