>Governor Mitch Daniels and I chatted briefly Tuesday at the Governor’s Reception for Indiana Black Expo. I asked him about FSSA and the state halting the IBM contract, changes in Indiana prisons, local government cutbacks and the “Mitch for President” chatter. You can hear the entire conversation by clicking below. It’s about 5 minutes long.
