Actor, Kennedy daughter to join Clintons for Indiana stops

Actor Sean Astin and former Maryland Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend will join former President Bill Clinton and his daughter Chelsea on their campaign swing through Indiana Monday.

Townsend, the daughter of Robert F. Kennedy and a former Maryland lieutenant governor, will appear with the Clintons at Dyngus Day and Solidarity Day events in South Bend.

………..Dyngus Day is a Polish holiday that celebrates the end of Lent, but in South Bend it's more of a political holiday where residents can meet and talk to elected leaders.

The former president also is scheduled to make stops at "Solutions for America" rallies Monday in Rochester and Logansport. His schedule for the day ends with a 7:30 p.m. appearance at a West Lafayette High School rally.

Chelsea Clinton will be joined by Astin, the star of the Notre Dame football movie "Rudy," during an appearance in Bloomington. The two will appear at 6:30 p.m. at the Grand Foyer at Indiana University Ballroom, according to a campaign spokesman.

Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton toured the state Thursday, and her husband also made appearances on Tuesday. …….

13. Whats nice is that she is respectful of Hillary.

[Yael]

15. Indeed. Like I said -- she is a class act.

I support her in this as she wouldn't be doing it if she didn't believe in it. The anti-politician if you will.

BTW, I like the two pictures of Hillary in your signature. That's the girl Bill fell in love with at Yale.

[rodeodance]

25. Thanks. they are good photos

18. For all the jokes (and I've been guilty),

the organizers of that festival, Polish or otherwise, will meet, greet, and be appreciative of VIP visitors. The town will probably benefit. The Clintons have long, long records of local appearances like this. The old saying "credit where credit is due" applies, IMO.

[rodeodance]

22. Thats good to hear.

[rodeodance]
