Pink Mansions

Pretty decent piece about Hoosier songster John Mellencamp and the recent backlash to his politics. To give it Beltway relevance, strange bedfellow Evan Bayh suggests the singer might have political aspirations, but JM says it ain't so (in a roundabout way): "Nah," the rock star says, exhaling a plume of smoke. "My wife wouldn't let us move to a smaller house."
