Switched at Birth: Casting Call

We wanted to take a moment and thank our readers for helping with the success and growth of our blog since our June launch.

One our more popular segments had been our Switched at Birth series, where we have compared local politicians' likenesses with those of celevrities. Due to this success, we are opening up the series to suggestions from you, the people. It can be any local or Indiana politician (Republican, Democrat, Green, Libertarian, etc). You can compare them to any celebrity, sports figure, other politician, or fictional character. Just remember to keep it clean and quasi-respectful (PG or PG-13).

You can send us your suggestions in the comment section to this post or e-mail us at polispolitics@hotmail.com. If you have specific photos to suggest, please e-mail us.

We look forward to seeing what our fellow readers come up with!...

Garten was a nuclear policy analyst for the Ford and Carter administrations before her venture into catering. Maybe she might have done a better job at administering primary elections...
