Indiana Chamber Disappointed With Election Results

Poor babies. After their support for the toll road sell off and the imposition of daylight savings time they should be glad that there are any "pro-business legislators" (that is, toadies who slavishly follow the lobbyist money rather than the interests and views of their own constituents) left. I must say that I'm particularly gratified by the loss of Troy "I'll Never Vote for Daylight Time" Woodruff, who ended up casting the deciding vote in favor of it's passage in the Indiana House.

Despite what the pundits pontificate, voters do remember. And we act on those memories.

Indiana Chamber of Commerce President Kevin Brinegar says the state's largest business organization is disappointed that it lost four strongly pro-business legislators in the Indiana House.

Update:Even the former Republican Speaker of the Indiana House recognizes that DST cost them the election.

The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
