Ever notice how many letters to the editor he writes?<BR/><BR/>He lied about his stance on the HRO and stabbed us in the back. Twice.

No doubt.<BR/><BR/>His Clark Senate replacement battle was a classic come-uppance to Chairman Murphy, delivered with a gut punch thrown by Hamilton County Republicans. Ike never knew what hit him.<BR/><BR/>I remember Goldy's second campaign. The Demo nominee was Z. Mae Jimison. A finer lady no one could ever meet. She is a former judge and council member. With a shoestring budget, she got about 43%, as I recall. <BR/><BR/>Goldsmith didn't lay a glove on her.,..he couldn't. She was a grandma-type short black lady...how could he attack her?<BR/><BR/>Goldy's less-than-stellar showing, with a huge war chest, began to spell the end of his political career. <BR/><BR/>Good riddance.<BR/><BR/>Would Ike have to take a leave from IFD to run? Hell let's just shut down the city ballot filings until all the public payroll folks fill the slots. It's worked so well to have public employees on the council thus far.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1159544988737369392006-09-29T10:49:00.000-05:002006-09-29T10:49:00.000-05:00I caught a little bit of Abdul's interview with Ik...I caught a little bit of Abdul's interview with Ike this morning. Abdul first wanted to know why he hadn't given him a heads up on his mayoral intentions--"I thought we were friends". Ike didn't seemed pleased that AI had first broken the news about his e-mail to key supporters and the call he got this week from Tully. He indicated that he wanted to explain to Tully what he was up to, but he really didn't want his plans discussed publicly at this time.Gary R.

His dad started that business 30 years ago, and Jim carries it on.<BR/><BR/>I don't know where you've seen Bradford, AI, but I've seen him at multiple events looking like the GOP's Julia. Kinda sloppy, to put it mildly.<BR/><BR/>Wilson, why the race-baiting? The GOP's state chairman, Murray Clark, is as good a gentleman as you'll find. He's wrong on most big issues of couse, but he's respected a great deal. I'm not sure the state GOP chair can do anything about the Marion County ticket anyway. Now, Chair/Rep Murphy, that's another matter. He's an ideological nightmare--strident and shrill.<BR/><BR/>AI, I'll leave the GOP side of the 07 ticket to you and others in your party. But if you want to continue to think that anything can derail this Mayor, short of getting arrested himself, go ahead. It's just not the real world. Not even close.<BR/><BR/>Most of the Dem establishment is already patting themselves on the back for winning everything in the county in five weeks. Premature, but, given the pathetic typical Center Twp. turnout, if they think the Ds are gonna win big, it will likely keep some people at home. Over-confidence is their biggest hurdle right now.<BR/><BR/>And as for Mr. Tully, I refuse to get all bent out of shape over anything he writes. <BR/><BR/>Happy blogging.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1159536698020483812006-09-29T08:31:00.000-05:002006-09-29T08:31:00.000-05:00by the way, hailstones are as welcome in Indiana a...by the way, hailstones are as welcome in Indiana as illegal aliens with syphilis and AK47s...Wilson46201https://www.blogger.com/profile/14214029150233485312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1159535052407621862006-09-29T08:04:00.000-05:002006-09-29T08:04:00.000-05:00Prognostications from monarchists in the Region ar...Prognostications from monarchists in the Region are worth a pail of warm spit ...Wilson46201https://www.blogger.com/profile/14214029150233485312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1159534671192189042006-09-29T07:57:00.001-05:002006-09-29T07:57:00.001-05:00Jim Bradford?

He was similarly perceived as being unbeatable and the Democrats didnt' bother to field a strong candidate against him. By election day, his popularity had fallen way off and he only managed about 54% of the vote. The Democratic candidate ran poorly (under 40%), but the Libertarian candidate got about 7% of the vote as people looked for an alternative. The Democratic chairman, Kip Tew, was heavily criticized afterwards for failing to field a stronger candidate. Republicans would be making a similar mistake if they didn't look for their strongest candidate in 2007--the election is winnable.Gary R.

There's no way Hoosier Republicans would stand by and let an African-American run for a winnable office. Ike might be an acceptable GOP 'sacrificial lamb' but not a winnable candidate. In the over 30 years of Marion County GOP domination, no African-Americans were ever slotted for winnable county offices. None.
