In 2007, I was a grassroots volunteer on a long-shot campaign for mayor of Indianapolis. The candidate was a retired Marine named Greg Ballard, and literally the only person who thought he would win was Greg.

Many people are dead sure @IndyMayorJoe is running. He's not. I expect him to make that official very soon, likely next week*.
*Unless he reads this column, changes his mind and runs again so I have to feature him in my annual things-I-got-wrong column. indystar.com/story/opinion/c…
