Jean is no RINO, and this tax hiking BS just is lame as it gets.

Actually it's part of the public record. Follow along:

-- Jean Schmidt voted to raise Ohio's Sales Tax by 20%. Ken Blackwell opposed it. This vote allowed her to raise Ohio's budget by over 10%. They could have left out the tax increase, and still had more money to spend than they did in the prior budget cycle.

-- Schmidt voted to raise Ohio's Gas Tax by 6 cents/gallon. She and Bob Taft must think gas prices are too low.

-- Schmidt sponsored legislation which led to taxes being raised in Hamilton County and Cincinnati.

That's the Jean Schmidt tax record for you. We cannot condemn liberals like Hillary Clinton for their tax and spend policies, then defend RINO's like Jean Schmidt who do the same thing. These tax hikers in both parties need to be defeated.

I lived through this whole debate, like a democrat, you refuse to accept the context. Instead you point at an event and complain about someone acting responsibly for responsible reasons. Or, you distort the record so that you cover the actual facts to carry a useless point. The people of Cincinnati, misguidedly, voted to raise their own taxes. If you want to blame anyone for that, blame them.

This is the worst example of one issue voting. You are welcome to your small mind and your big hate.

Its a fact that this message doesn't resonate in the 2nd. It didn't carry the day in the previous primary and it won't carry the day at any point in the future. GET OVER IT!
