INDIANA POLITICS

Granted, Linden’s blog focus is usually on political items of some national significance but today, just a few words regarding our Hendricks County Lincoln Day Dinner of Thursday evening, March 24 2011.

Our County Chairman, Mike O’Brien, directed the events from the podium. Following the Pledge of Allegiance, prayer, and a very good dinner, Mike introduced our impressive 4th District Congressman, Todd Rokita, for a few well delivered words. Then, our Indiana Secretary of Education, Dr. Tony Bennett, introduced current 6th District Congressman and surely our next Governor, Mike Pence, for a short and sometimes either thoughtful or funny speech. He cut his speech short so the crowd could go home and watch the late telecast of the Butler basketball game. Butler won.

In addition to these, some of the other Republican luminaries I talked to a bit within the course of the evening were Richard Mourdock, who is running for the Senate seat, Pete Miller, our 4th District Chairman, activist Eric Miller and, of course, some others.
Even though I am much less active than I once was, there were still many present with whom I was once more closely associated. It was a good evening.

LINDEN’S LIFE

On Thursday, I met Bill, Chuck, and Paul for breakfast, went to the Golden Glows pitch-in luncheon at church…great food and a very good presentation by those who had just returned from a trip to the Holy Land. In the evening, John Wiggins picked Kent McPhail and myself up and took us to the Republican affair mentioned above. It was a very good day in every respect and I should not be hungry for a long time.
