Today the JG has an article about candidates who railed AGAINST the bailout of GM, who also took money from them! Dan Coats and Mike Pence, who both received money from GM, thinks it is okay to do so. Marlin Stutzman says it is not- but, as usual, does just the opposite of what he [...]
Not really pertinent to Allen County Politics, but worth the time for political junkies. Meg Whitman, running for Governor of California, has her own words used against her by Democrat Jerry Brown. In a word, BRILLIANT!
Congressional Candidates for Indiana’s 3rd district filed reports outlining their campaign contributions for the first two weeks of October, according to a story in today’s JG. Stutzman reports raising $110,085. However, and this is a key point- 60% of the $518,600 that he has raised comes from PACs. Only 9% of Hayhurst’s donations are from [...]

Although Stutzman says the direct payments should be eliminated, until they [...]

Marlin Stutzman voted with the GOP for delaying this TAX on business- in the hopes of a federal bailout! I thought that the debt at the national level was the problem?? From this morning’s JG: “Gov. Mitch Daniels said he hopes a new Congress elected next month will address the problem – in effect, extend [...]
Today the Journal Gazette endorsed Tom Hayhurst for Congress! More importantly, they called out Marlin Stutzman- Marlin Stutzman, the Republican running against Hayhurst, has sought four different political offices in the last four years, suggesting his political ambitions may outweigh his desire to serve the people who have elected him. Well said!
