I agree with you.
There is no way a conservative, patriotic American votes for a left wing socialist any time, for any "reason".
I would add: Or stands aside when one is trying to get into office.
I'm no fan of DeWine or Voinovich, but I am amazed people complain about those two (who DO vote our way the majority of the time) after all of the years of Metzenbaum and the Spaceman. Doesn't anybody freaking remember the job Metzenbaum did on Bork?? Does anyone think DeWine would have trashed Bork like that? Rest assured Sherrod Brown would!
