Sunday Morning Musings
Before heading back to Indy after a weekend of telling jokes and having a lot of fun at the expense of the current Governor of Illinois, I thought I’d post a few items of note for you to munch on until tomorrow…
- Expect a new report on charter schools to come out soon counteracting the belief that there is no measurable difference in the academic performance of charter schools and traditional public schools.
- Don’t be surprised if you see some Statehouse Marion County Democrats start publicly supporting Kernan-Shepard and government consolidation.
- A sneak peak into the Mayor’s re-election campaign fund shows about $1million raised this past year.
- Expect another wave of organized protest to show up complaining about the city’s purchase of 85 Toyota hybrid vehicles. Democratic minority leader Joanne Sanders is having about 100 leaflets printed with City-County Councilors’ phone numbers on them. Sanders is organizing about a dozen or so women to make calls to local officials and give them hell about not buying cars made by a company that begged and pleaded for a government bailout.
- More names are surfacing as possible contenders for Marion County Sheriff in 2010, one of which is Eva Talley Sanders.
Personal Note:
- Oddly enough today is both my mom’s birthday and my future mother-in-law’s. Happy Birthday, ladies.
