After much prodding from my good friend Troy, I have accepted the challenge of blogging from the “Bloody 8th” district of Indiana. It is our goal to keep you informed about not only the race for the 8th, but US Senate, State House and State Senate races as well as other happenings in local politics. The year 2010 is going to be exciting to say the least in politics and I can’t wait to share my thoughts with you.

I do hope you enjoy the site and let us know what you think. But first, let’s set some ground rules.

1st. No personal attacks. We will talk about a persons voting record as they are free game! But we leave families out of all debates.

2nd. Keep it clean. This is a family friendly site and you never know who may be reading.

3rd. Have fun! We won’t always agree – and that’s alright, but let’s disagree in a respectful way.

Outside of that, it’s game on.

I hope you enjoy the site and comment often.

T. J.
