Ohio's Democrat party is clearly "Lost in Space" as they hold NO statewide offices.

Thanks for the bump.

With a Senator like Mike Dewine and Governor like Bob Taft, sometimes I think that the Ohio Republican Party must be cast a way on Gilligan’s Island. I don’t care much for George Voynovich either.

With so called Republican Party leadership like this bunch, we’re all pretty much lost. We may as well have Democrats in office.

I've said that before...many times. But I believe things could be a lot worse with Dems (big tax increase), of course I'd prefer things to be a lot better.

With that said, our Senators are making it tough for me to vote for them but I probably would given the national implications, but the governor has made it impossible for me to vote for him.

As a hardcore "old fogie" trekkie ... I hated "Voyeur" (what I called it). AND I especially hated the character "janeway" ... (I found the doctor pretty nauseating too). To me she was a stellar example of affirmative action and the "Peter Principle" taken to their logical conclusions. BUT I tried to convince myself that Kate Mulgrew was just playing a part and that she wasn't really like that in real life. I was mistaken .....

BTW ... I really like the new one except for the engineer character.

"Oh Ms. Ryan! How the mighty have fallen!"

What do you mean? Has she stopped wearing her wonderbra?? Say it ain't so! (Sometimes I'm just bad...but Mrs. Pablo loves me anyway).

I see Dewine as a McCaine wannabe. And McCain votes DemocRat as often as Republican. I did not vote for Dewine the last time and I won’t vote for him the next time he is up for reelection.

Voinovich is not as bad. But he still votes for a great many socialist bills that I find repugnant to the Constitution and conservative principles. But on the whole he is better than a true Dimocrat.

I think the Republicans in this state are afraid to run true conservatives for office.

I believe they look at the past office holders in this state (Ultra-liberals Glenn and Metzenbaum) and believe true conservative Republicans can not get elected.

This why I believe they persuaded Dewine’s primary opponent (I can’t remember his name) to run for secretary of state when Dewine initially ran for the Senate. By the way isn’t Metzenbaum Dewine’s father-in-law.

Well, the fact that I forgot about "Voyeur", or as I thought of it "Star Trek - Gilligan's Isle", shows how forgettable it was. . .

NO. That was Joel Hyatt the man Dewine defeated. I normally don't defend DeRino but when it comes to the Senate...I'd vote for devil if he was an R.....to get Leahy from heading the Judiciary comitee.

Take back the Senate...no matter what (I'd bet we will... Go Coleman, Go Thune, Go Forester...my 3 most likely pickups)

Give Taft the shaft. He's a pictorial of RINO.

Looks like we are being .067%ers in the governor's race.

Let's all vote for the same .067% party if it does well (defined as over 1%) maybe a little message is sent to the state Party.

I'm not sure it will do well in Ohio, but I'm hoping for a good increase nationwide. The split seems 50/50, 2% would put the fear in em.
