>> that is the apple of my eye, young margaret daniels. that was a few years ago. i think she was with me because -- i think it was primary day, possibly, of 2004. something else a little different with us, you almost never see sherry or one of the girls with me. that is my job, that is what i do. i almost did not run because sherry had great misgivings. she likes private life and she likes our privacy. family comes first with her. i came this close to not running for that reason. i said we do not have to do this like other people. i will never pressure you to take part in any event. i have kept that for six years. when she does things of her own choosing, people just love her to death, because she is so non-political. she is the queen of the indiana state fair, basically. she is defending champion once removed in a cow milking contest and a watermelon seed spitting contest. >> where did you meet her? >> i was working for mayor lugar. >> how many years have you been married? >> 31. three of my daughters are in indiana, and young margaret is just finishing her first
