Gary Welsh of Advance Indiana is demanding to know the position Indianapolis area legislative candidates will take on the anticipated request by CIB that they be bailed out of the city's shortsighted failure to consider operating costs of the Lucas Oil Stadium. Gary, you have my "Amen."
I want to say a special thank you to Phil Hinkle, one of the few remaining Republicans whose district includes my home township of Pike. Here's what Phil said according to Advance Indiana:
Rep. Phil Hinkle (R-District 92): "No, absolutely NO BAILOUT. If it was such a good deal, let Bart Peterson and Fred Glass form a partnership and operate the Oil Can, keep the profits and relieve the taxpayer of any burden to maintain the facility. We will of course continue to pay down the bond as they obligated us to do."
Well put, Phil. You're making Pike Township Republicans, the few of us who remain, proud.
