The day after an election day is one of numbness and tiredness, especially if your candidate lost. Obama headquarters probably felt that way after a long hard day getting out the vote. Although they lost in Indiana, the decisive win in North Carolina blunted some of the sadness. It was a thrill to work with them and I hope to be able to  do more in the months to come during the general election in November.

Northwest Indiana got a lot of airplay nationally this time, although it wasn’t all good. At least it wasn’t for being murder city as Gary has been called in the past.

I didn’t get a chance to see the discussion that the Mayors of Hammond and Gary had on late night TV. I wish I could have seen that. Jeffry Toobin (sp?) called the delay a disgrace about 9pm central on CNN. I winced at that one. But it was true.

They hust have to get the vote results out earlier. We can’t be the bedrock of corruption and the Murder Capital at the same time.  That’s a heavy guilt trip to lay on us good citizens of Northwest Indiana. Believe me, there are a lot of them here.
