In order for the GOP to retain the Ohio governorship in 2006, it needs to run a candidate who can (i) distance himself from Governor Taft and the state's other corrupt RINOs, (ii) motivate conservatives to get out the vote, and (iii) appeal to moderate and conservative Democrats. The only gubernatorial candidate who can do all that is Ken Blackwell, who is 100% conservative and routinely gets upwards of 30% of the black vote in statewide elections (and without 90%+ of the black vote, the Democrats are toast in Ohio). I hope that Blackwell becomes one of two or three black Republican governors in January of 2007 (with Lynn Swann of Pennsylvania and maybe J.C. Watts of Oklahoma being the others).

Is this a TABOR?

Good article tho, and hope things work out for Blackwell. He's clearly what the Ohio GOP needs, now more than ever.
