There seems to be little confidence on either side in the fight for the GOP nomination for Attorney General.

Both Jon Costas and Greg Zoeller say they will win if delegates do what they say they will, but, they both admit, that’s hard to predict.

Costas keeps selling his vote getting ability, though I wonder how you can compare a Valparaiso election with a statewide election.  Supporters talk about what a good candidate he’s become in a short amount of time.

Zoeller wins support from people who remember him as a staffer for Dan Quayle.  He also hopes to win support from delegates who back Ron Paul. 

That causes problems for his primary sponsor, Steve Carter, who is the Indiana point man for John McCain.

Greg Zoeller is in.

The chief of staff to Attorney General Steve Carter wants the job his boss wants to give up.

Zoeller has a varied background.  He worked for Dan Quayle in the White House and has taught at IUPUI.

He’s after the Republican nomination in the state convention.

The Marion County prosecutor just released a statement saying that he won’t be a candidate for Attorney General this year.  There was speculation about a Brizzi run following Steve Carter’s announcement that he won’t seek re-election.

Earlier Brizzi bypassed an opportunity to run for Congress in the 7th District. 

He promises to serve out his term as prosecutor.
