Maybe if the GOP didn't spend so much to re-elect RINOs, like Rhode Island's Lincoln Chafee, it would have enough money for DeWine's campaign.

Jay, Jay, Jay ... the odds of the New York Times accurately reporting GOP real strategy is the same odds of seeing a front page puff piece on Rick Santorum there.

FOLKS, IF IT IS THAT BAD, ALL THE MORE REASON TO FIGHT HARDER.

Broken-glass time, Republicans! Save the Congress!

This is exactly correct. DeWine is looking good heading into the home stretch. He's got more money than his opponent, he has higher voter recognition, and he sits comforably in the minds of moderate Buckeyes, dems and pubs alike. No need for the RNC to invest more money in Ohio.

I heard the opposite, that the DNCC was cutting Brown loose.

Misinformation.

Advice to Democrats: Your party has this election in the bag. It won't even be close. So why waste your time and effort going out to vote this election. Just sleep until noon, then do some shopping, watch a movie and eat and drink to your heart's content while you gloat over the GOP's impending defeat. Just have a good time -- your measly little vote isn't going to make a difference in this landslide.

You have to be one of the easiest manipulated people ever. When the media brags that it can fool the idiots on the right... they have excellent proof... Don't they!!!

ATTENTION: BRIT HUME LAST NIGHT STATED THAT THIS WAS A dim LIE AND THAT THEY CHECKED AND DEWINE HAS FULL SUPPORT. INTERNALS were said to LOOK REALLY GOOD FOR DEWINE.

Since the exit poll scam of 2004 didn't work, they (MSM) are now trying to set the mold of a Democrat landslide for 2006. When it doesn't happen, they will already have the stories in place to run with a "something stinks" angle. They’re merely sowing damage control seeds.

I heard on Hannity yesterday that the GOP went all-out this weekend in Ohio, hitting every potential Ohio republican voter. I hope they are using the same efforts in Missouri, Tennessee, and PA. God, how great would it be if Santorum won.
I know the GOP ground gain is top notch. But it really is a shame that Republicans in Ohio have governed like democrats. If they, and all elected republicans acted like Reagan Conservatives we wouldn't be in this mess.

That is what struck me when reading the article, namely, the complete absence of another point of view. Perhaps it is a bad sign that the GOP is taking funds away from DeWine, but the opposite may also be true. Perhaps the GOP thinks DeWine will be fine and is directing the resources where they think they are truly needed.

Latest Ras poll has DeWine down by 5. Hmmm, don't know what to make of this.

When will the people who are supposed to be on our side are going to ever learn not to believe the lies of the New York Times. It is very frustrating…

Dewine is what happens when you align yourself with the "14 Gangsters",
spend like a drunken sailor and leave the borders open.

Lets not forget, that Dewine's son, Pat...the OVERWHELMING FAVORITE to win a house seat in Ohio got his teeth kicked in and came in 4th place.

A portion of the conservative base sent Daddy Dewine an early warning.
He seems to not have gotten the message.
