Now That the Special is Over, What’s a Blogger to Do?

Can anybody say, the end of the Short Session in the General Assembly? There are plenty of events on the schedule for Hoosier Access to cover, including a live blog of the closing hours of the General Assembly….that is if Pat Bauer doesn’t keep the Session from going into a Special Session as well as upcoming Hoosier Access Radio interviews with Lt. Governor Becky Skillman and 2nd CD candidate Luke Puckett. By the way, can anybody tell me why “The Hair” decided to not to bring the House into session all week when serious property tax reform needs to be passed? Does he want a special session to take place at tax payer expense? (Update - There’s been a compromise…Thank You!)

Anyway, the spotlight around here (being Indy) has been the 7th CD Special Election. With MC Juggernaut (aka Andre Carson) coming out victorious the battle for the Democrat primary has already begun in full force with David Orentlicher “officially” announcing yesterday, Woody Myers ready to run ads and Carolene Mays fundraising across the district. But this race has eight full weeks to percolate with fun stuff. My guess is, though, it won’t hardly take that long.

Let’s not forget that Indiana is actually going to mean something this year in presidential election. For starters, Barack Obama is gracing us with his empty message of “hope and change” (or maybe that was someone else’s message and he’s just “borrowing” it this year) this weekend. Oh to be a fly on the wall of his meetings with various super delegates. I can only imagine how many time disgraced former Democrat Governor and Hillary backing super-delagate of New York Elliot Spitzer will be brought up.

The thing is, the fun never stops around here, though we may pause to get some work done. Indiana’s most prominent conservative blog promises that! (Thanks TBB for the compliment!)
