The Ohio General Assembly approved a measure to combine the two scheduled 2012 primaries into a single date, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer. Yesterday House Bill 369 repealed the change to two primaries which would have pushed Ohio's 2012 Presidential primary into June.

Is Newt on the early ballot?

There was some questions as to whether his campaign had the necessary number of signatures.

I hope you are correct.

So, the Ohio legislature settles it. Guess Ohio is not going have to wait and see if two federal judges are going to change dates and re-draw the whole thing.

Good, while he wasn't my first pick the more I see folks like National Review, BOR and the recently crazy tall skinny lawyer whose books I used to buy, pimping for mittens, the more I'm getting into Newt's camp.

I thought that Newt hit a home run with the judges/court question from Kelly during the debate, oreilly and coulter dumped all over him for being crazy, too far over the top etc.

Some one is out of touch with the real world.
