Since Indiana is on the radar right now, can we get either Obama or Bubba here?

I would *love nothing more than to stop Mike Pence in his tracks. I have a visceral reaction to him, much like Obama has been rumored to have toward Mitt. John Gregg is a good guy, and would make a great Governor. Yeah, that's the ticket...Obama/Donnelly/Gregg. (I literally may have to leave this state if Mike Pence were to win). Please make this happen!

and all repubs are realizing their mistake in dumping Lugar, that is why Pence is trying to sound so moderate. The ads by Gregg(I have only seen two) point out the real Pence and drive home the vision of a Pence win.
In Indiana we drink coffee, get rid of the t-bags.

It has always proved to be very conservative, so I have basically assumed that we don't have a chance there and need to put our resources in states where there are better odds.

Not to write off the good Dems who live there, it is just a fact of political life.

Here in CT, we probably wouldn't get Bubba coming if it weren't for Linda McMahon. Obama enjoys a good margin. So we nutmeggers don't get a lot of attention unless there is a race that is really important, and our Senate race to replace Lieberman is it...
