Gilroy Gives Local GOP A Lot To Think About

Sue Ann Gilroy stepped beyond the podium, spoke without notes and told local Republicans what they needed to hear Thursday night.

Gilroy, who stepped into office as part of the "Lugar Team" during the 1994 Republican revolution, spoke of disappointment in the election results of 1996, which included victories for Democrats in the governor's mansion and the White House.
