Today: A conversation with central Indiana attorney and former Dan Coats aide Mark Hurt, who is -- for now -- the only Republican running for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Joe Donnelly.

I talked with him one-on-one and then sat in on a question-and-answer session that Hurt held with Marc Chase, Bill Dolan and Doug Ross of The Times of Northwest Indiana.
Valparaiso University associate professor law Faisal Kutty sent in an "op-ed" piece to the Toronto Star last week about how those who hate Islam have been emboldened by recent rhetoric. Professor Kutty is also an adjunct professor of law at York University in Canada. I talked with him about the newspaper article.
