FYI…
Theoretically, I’m on “vacation” this week, but I’m still blogging. Here are a few things that I’ve been noticing since I have time to sit around and almost do nothing…
Do You Trustee this Man?
- Have us media folks let Washington Township Trustee Frank Short off the hook? He’s the one who drafted the budget that included the 60-percent trustee raise for the Township Board and will be the one to sign and approve it.
Melina for Mayor
- There’s another sign Democrats are gearing up to try to run former Deputy Mayor Melina for Mayor in 2011. There was a big fundraiser on the Northeast side of town not too long ago and Kennedy was a reportedly helped raise quite a bit.
Second Time’s a Charm
- Marion County GOP Chairman Tom John intends to run for another term as County Chairman. No word yet on who might challenge him, but one name being surfaced is former IU law professor Henry Carlson.
Summers’ Time
- I’m also hearing that Democrat State Rep Vanessa Summers is running to chair in Indiana General Assembly’s Legislative Black Caucus. Righ now that job is being held by Vernon Smith of Gary. There is some talk that is the Marion County delegation attempting to flex it’s muscle. I’m not totally sold on that theory, yet.
Body and Soul
- Politico has an interesting story about the President elect and him hitting the gym instead of the pulpit. My belief, you can pray anywhere at anytime.
That’s all I’ve seen for now. I may post something tomorrow after waking up from my hangover. Enjoy.
