Another Democrat has come over to our side! This one from Ohio!
Democratic Mayor of Youngstown, OH Endorses President Bush
There's a major political announcement coming out of Ohio at this hour: Mayor George M. McKelvey of Youngstown, a Democrat, is endorsing President Bush. McKelvey comes from an area that understands the need to continue President Bush's pro-growth policies to create jobs -- in sharp contrast to John Kerry's record of raising taxes on the middle class. Here's a report from the AP:
The mayor of this Democratic stronghold known for its steel industry job losses is endorsing President Bush for his Republican re-election campaign, Bush's campaign said Monday.
Democratic mayors of the biggest cities in the battleground state are one of Democratic candidate John Kerry's main supports in Ohio. Republicans control the Legislature and all statewide elected offices.
Mayor George M. McKelvey, in his second term, planned to pledge his support for Bush at a news conference scheduled for Monday afternoon, Bush campaign spokesman Kevin Madden said.
``He believes the president is providing the leadership the country needs with regard to growing the economy and making the country safer,'' Madden said.
