Scenes from Elkhart
August 6, 2008 – 5:48 pmLeftover thoughts from Barack Obama’s appearance at Concord High School:
-This morning’s event started almost a half hour late. Was it held on Evan Bayh time?
-Obama first mispronounced the name of Mike Montagano (the Democrat challenging Congressman Mark Souder) before getting it right. Its something Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry did at an earlier event and something I did on Indiana Week in Review. Its mon-TAG-a-no.
-State Democratic Chairman Dan Parker and House Speaker Pat Bauer didn’t get acknowledged by Obama.
-House Speaker Pat Bauer had a new shorter haircut.
-Just two Chicago television stations made the trip to Elkhart and two from Indianapolis.
-A t-shirt and cap vendor outside said it was a bad day. He blamed it on a small house (1600) and too many vendors.
