Not according to the Indianapolis Red Star. All 3 Rep candidates out-poll Ellsworth right now. Ellsworth is a weak candidate because he’s a Obama supporter and voted for all the socialist junk last year. Ellsworth is also a danger because the Dems will lose his seat in the House.
I will review all the candidates and vote for my candidate in the primary. If Coats, Hostettler, or whomever wins, I will support that person in the fall election. I don’t want the Dems to have control of the Senate when Supreme Court justices start to retire. I also want a ‘Senate of No’ until 2012.
That is because they do not know much about Hostettler. They are just supporting him because he is a Republican and because he has soem more experience in Congress. When they get a good look at him and the Dem spin machine gets into him those numbers will turn around. If he wins he will be another Wiliam Lloyd Scott who was the considered the dumbest man in DC. He ran for the Senate in ‘72. Because no body gave him a chance there was little attention focused on him and he some how manged to win a huge upset. When he took office the spot light turned on him and he did not even bother to run for reelection. Who ever wins the nomination will have the spot on him and I think Hostettler would blow the election when people look at him.
