There were at least 3 Obama stickers in the lot and no Repub stickers that I could see.

How great to bring Indiana 'home' in November!!!

P.S., How likely do you think that Senator Lugar will retain his seat?

It's all old folks up here. They love him. I could be wrong, but not optimistic. He has some competition, though. What has really been weird, though, is the lack of support for any anybody but Obama. A few Ron Paul stickers. These rubes know not what to think. A lot of confused people.

as from what I understand his repug challenger MUCH WORSE. Tho we could surely use another Dem Senate seat, his experience is valuable, imo.
Good to hear of confused people, as long as they don't, finally, vote repug (or stay home. Tho might staying home in November be a good thing?)

I have been surprised over and over again by some people in this area. I have a few friends who are "real" Republicans who are just on the verge of admitting their party has gone 'round the bend." One of my good friends used to be an active fundraiser for the Republican party and now vows that they will never get another hour of her time or another cent of her money. She just got a job in Costa Rica. LOL.

Had Dem friends in South Bend, they passed on several years ago; not sure where their adult children are.

Nothing like the geographic cure: Costa Rica!!!

Right after I got my first cell phone. It was a full Barnes and Noble parking lot and I noticed that there were two cars parked next to each other with Alaska and Hawaii plates, respectively.

And this was in Ohio. You definitely don't see that everyday
