Rick Perry spoke at the top floor of the prestigious Columbia Club in Indianapolis today, the fourth G.O.P. candidate to visit here this year at the invitation of the Indiana Republican Party. I wasn't with any media outlet today, but I RSVP'd for the event because I figured it would be a good opportunity for some photos. Since I don't really mingle with political people, I knew hardly anyone in the crowd. I wasn't lonely, though, since AP photographer Michael Conroy and IDS reporter Charlie Scudder were there with their respective outlets.

As a side note, while trying to set up my camera on a remote, a woman asked me what media outlet I'm with. When I said I was just there for my photo blog, she asked if I was keeping a conservative blog. "No," I said, "it's decidedly apolitical." She didn't talk to me much after that. I wish I had a better way to say what this good photographer said.

That's his class Aggie Ring from Texas A&M. He wears it about as much as, if not more than, his wedding ring. Alex Farris
