HOOSIER VALUES


What is Barack Obama looking for in a running mate?

Obama tells TIME he wants someone who is “not about ego, self-aggrandizement, getting their name in the press” and tells CBS News he wants someone he would “feel comfortable with.”

Obama at Saddleback: “There are people like … Dick Lugar, a Republican, who I’d listen to on foreign policy.”

On CNN this past Sunday: BLITZER: “Do you agree with Senator Lieberman that Senator Obama has not put the country first?”

LUGAR: “No. I think that was clearly a partisan statement at a rally. I respect everybody their opinions in a political campaign, but that’s all that was.”

4. Lugar likes Obama. You can't get him to say anythng negative about him

Wolf tried Sunday and Lugar wouldn't do it. But Lugar is a straight Republican, he supports McCain. He wouldn't do it
