On this edition of Indiana Issues TV, we look at the recent mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton. Also, the Inspector General clears Governor Eric Holcomb of wrongdoing involving a trip paid for by a private company. And we look at education as Hoosier kids head back to school. Our panel includes Eric Berman […]
This may sound crazy, but I’ve been doing some analysis lately of the new 7th Congressional District maps, and Republican Carlos May actually has a pretty good shot at pulling an upset victory over Democratic incumbent Andre Carson. No, I have been overindulging in martinis. (I actually gave up alcohol for 30 days doing the […]
The latest edition of The Cheat Sheet is out. It includes information on the following… The Latest polling in the Indianapolis Mayor’s race. Another potential political sex scandal here in Indianapolis. Richard Mourdock vs. Andre Carson. The latest from the races in the 5th & 6th Congressional Districts.

Although it’s been a few days since 7th District Congressman Andre Carson’s comments regarding some members of the Tea Party hit the national scene, the debate still continues. Carson himself has started to backtrack somewhat from his rhetoric that there are some members of Congress who would like to see blacks “hanging from a tree”, […]

To put it mildly, the two don’t apparently see eye and would gladly get rid of the other one should the opportunity ever present itself. Well, less than 24 hours after that […]

Either someone jumped the gun this afternoon or Indiana Congressman Andre Carson had a change of heart on a continuing resolution to keep the federal government running. His Office sent out a news release shortly after the House of Representatives passed the resolution. It read as follows… Carson opposes latest Continuing Resolution D.C. – Congressman […]
