Indian Hill turning blue? (Bluegrass edition)

Barbara Gould became one of the very best friends in the whole wide world to Ted Strickland and Sherrod Brown, raising a big pot of money to get them elected governor and senator, respectively.



Barack Obama probably has a soft spot for Barbara, too.



Now, Gould has set her sights on Kentucky, where Democrat Steve Beshear is taking on Republican incumbent Ernie Fletcher in the governor's race. She's throwing a $1,000-per-ticket fundraiser on Oct. 4 at her Indian Hill home for Beshear.



Strickland is stopping by; and Gould has lined up a fiarly impressive host committee - among them, Hamilton County party chairman Tim Burke, Stan Chesley (who is to the Hillary Clinton campaign what Gould has been to the Obama campaign), State Sen. Eric Kearney, former Ohio Democratic Party chairman David Leland, Hamilton County commissioner David Pepper, and philanthropists Lois and Richard Rosenthal.



If it is like most Gould political fundraising events, Ollie's Trolley will do the catering.

This isn't the first time - very recently - where the Enquirer has recycled the same story with the theme that "Indian Hill is Turning Blue".

I don;t care what color it is - politically speaking - but can we get reporters with a little more to talk about?

I'm sure the Enquirer will do its part to turn Indian Hill blue, but at least make the blog interesting.

That particular Host Committee would seem impressive to Howard.

What happened to the jail-tax entry?

Heh. even the wealthiest one percent are starting to realize how terrible Repugnicant rule has been even for them. despite their thirst for tax cuts, they still want to be able to travel the globe safely with a U.S. passport, drink clean water and breathe clean air, not worry about their government spying on them and tossing their darker-hued friends and neighbors in jail for no reason, and be able to give their kids toys that won't poison them.
