It was a great evening with a jam-packed menu of Democratic leaders, and President Bill Clinton spoke for nearly an hour to cap off this year's exciting state JJ dinner. Of all the stories to emerge from last night's festivities, Eric Bradner's piece in this morning's Courier & Press is probably the most interesting.
Mayor Jonathan Weinzapfel, attending a major Indiana Democratic fundraiser Saturday night at Indianapolis, was predictably coy about his political aspirations, but acknowledged he is considering a run for governor in 2012.
"It's something we will take a look at, yes," Weinzapfel said.
Weinzapfel hosted local-level party officials, major donors and others for a nearly two-hour meet-and-greet session in his own hospitality suite before the Indiana Democratic Party's annual Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner headlined by former President Bill Clinton.
It was, he said, "a chance to meet folks from throughout the state."
Weinzapfel was on the receiving end of some flowery words from supporters, but he wasn't the only one with friends in the room. As reported by Bradner, Roy Dominguez also had a hospitality suite, and just about every other rumored candidate was working the room at one point or another during the program.
