Right, Deters selected Steve Adams (nicknamed "Buttboy") to be the State Representative from the district. Tom Brinkman ran anyways and beat Deters and his Buttboy. Deters has held a grudge against Brinkman ever since then.
Joe Deters should worry more about staying out of any further legal problems and less about trying to pick our Congressman. The only thing Deters brings to the DeWine campaign is that he makes DeWine look ethical by comparison.
Why would you vote for someone who has such a poor record on taxes over a candidate who has voted against raising taxes 100% of the time. Brinkman is the only one of the 4 major candidates who has never voted to raise our taxes.
BTW, Schmidt has fallen to a solid 4th place in the latest polls. Brinkman is now leading. Why not vote for the guy who is leading DeWine?
Where has there been a poll? I have not heard of one or seen one in the media.
None of them have been made public. I've been aware of some private, though independent, polls that have been conducted which showed Brinkman pulling ahead.
At the same time I caught wind of those polls, DeWine and McEwen started running negative ads against Brinkman, so clearly their internal polls are showing the same thing. McEwen's people love to run around saying Tom has no chance of winning. If that's the case, then why are they running negative ads against him just 3 days out?
