A tweet from Indiana State Senator Mike Delph at 10:15 this morning. “Congressman Burton is announcing his retirement on the Statehouse floor at 10:30am, where it all started.”

Burton represents Indiana’s 5th congressional district. There are several vying for the slot, including former congressman and Kendallville native David McIntosh, attorney Jack Lugar, (Senator Dick Lugar’s son),  Susan Brooks, a former U.S. attorney and Fort Wayne native, and former Marion County Coroner John McGoff, who came close to defeating Burton two years ago.

The 5th District presently includes Huntington County, which joins the 3rd District for the next 10 years beginning with the 2012 elections.

Oh, I can hear Kevin Knuth now, hunkered down in his bunker with Mike Bynum.

A former Fort Wayne police officer, who must hold the record for disciplinary actions against him, has filed to run against Stutzman.

John Roberson filed this week as a democrat candidate in the primary election for the 3rd congressional seat. Robertson was canned form the FWPD in 1999 after receiving 28 various disciplinary actions. After that, he drove truck for a while, then retired.

Then we have hotel dweller Tommy Schrader, who never saw a gay porn flick he didn’t like. He’s also running as a democrat. You’ll recall he ran as a democrat last year in the at-large city council race, and won, only to be booted by the election board at the demand of Knuth and the democrats due to residency issues.

Hot damn, we have a race, eh?

The Gary Snyder Show on FM 100 Talks will be with President Obama and Vice-President Biden Tuesday in Kokomo, IN.  That’s right, with the risk of losing my “Vast Right-Wing Conspiriacy” media card, I have been granted media credentials for President Obama and Vice-President Biden’s visit to Kokomo on Tuesday afternoon.  Hopefully, we will have some audio from the President’s remarks on Tuesday and maybe we can get in a question or two. Kenny will be there too, but don’t count on much from him, this is better than a TSA pat down on Christmas day for Ken.  Sylvia Smith, Washington Bureau Chief for the Journal Gazette, will give us a call and give us her impressions of the just concluded elections plus we’ll ask her to reflect on her years of political reporting as she gets ready to retire.  Finally, Mike Nutter, President of the Fort Wayne TinCaps, chimes in on his big news from Monday about AAA-baseball coming to Parkview Field in July.  All this and an Ol’ Oaken Bucket preview: Indiana or Purdue?  And don’t forget, you can follow us on Facebook at Facebook.com/garylsnyder or Twitter @garylsnyder.

Listen to a replay of Former Notre Dame Head Coach, Lou Holtz, as he joins The Gary Snyder Show on FM 100 Talks.  Coach Holtz gives us his take on everything Notre Dame Football and talks a little about the Lou Holtz Charitable Foundation.  Erick Erickson, Editor-in-Chief of Redstate.com and CNN political analyst, is back and offers his insight into the recent Republican takeover of Congress.  Seriously, where else will you find Lou Holtz and Erick Erickson on the same show, ever?  All this and my usual insightful commentary on just about everything.

You don’t want to miss this one!  We are sending our resident liberal (no, not the Huntington County Council), Ken Zuk, into what can only be described as enemy territory for him, The Congressman Mike Pence tour bus.  That’s right, co-host of The Gary Snyder Show on FM 100 Talks, Ken Zuk, will be riding the Mike Pence tour bus all day and then calling in live with Congressman Pence and others onThe Gary Snyder Show on FM 100 Talks from 6-7 p.m.  Also joining the show will be Democratic candidate for Indiana’s 3rd CD, Dr. Tom Hayhurst.  Dr. Hayhurst will be making his final pitch on why he should be the 3rd District’s next Congressman.  All this and maybe some Notre Dame football.

Hopefully the radio gods are watching over The Gary Snyder Show on FM 100 Talks Thursday from 6 to 7 p.m. as Republican 3rd CD candidate Marlin Stutzman is scheduled to join the show.  We had some technical difficulties the last time Marlin was scheduled so hopefully he has a better cell phone this time?  Tony Krausz, Notre Dame beat writer for the Journal Gazette, will preview this weekends home game versus Western Michigan and “The Major” Steve Ochs will give us his weekly update on his campaign as an independent candidate for Huntington County Sheriff.
