    1. Bernard, don’t be selfish. Government services and operations are not offered as a la carte” options. While you may need less from the government, others need more. So your taxes pay for roads you may not drive on, police who may not protect your neighborhood, build schools your kids may not attend, provide health care you may not receive (but all of which may be needed by others in your city). Paying for it all is part of our civic responsibility.

    1. For a Republican to win in Indianapolis, they’d have to be a moderate. Most moderate Republicans are branded as RINO’s and loathed… there lies the issue. It would also require a Republican to fight their fellow Republicans at the Statehouse on matters like road funding or education.

      But Marion County Republicans just tried winning the prosecutors office on a “I’m not the other guy” and got smoked. What actual policy ideas are they going to offer?

    1. I listened a couple times, but I found I learned more just by listening to my garbage disposal run for three hours.

  1. He’s better than any other Indiana Republican I can think of. I’d possibly consider voting for him based on his platform if I still lived in Indy. It’ll be interesting to see what he runs on.

  2. I’d vote for Abdul. He’s intelligent, insightful, and he knows this city and its politics. He would be a good moderate to represent those of us who are not uber liberal or uber conservative.
