>>DeWine back?!?<<

>>Never gonna happen. Even the other RINOs in charge of the party (Bob Bennett comes to mind) know that he's a loser.

DeWine had a 70% negative rating within the party before he got whacked by Brown.<<

Hopefully he won't be back.

I was sick and tired of getting his Christmas cards and Fran's recipes.

After that sad Gang of 14 fiasco, I called his office and demanded they remove me from his mailing list...they never did.

“What is a “Voinovich”?”

He is a former Ohio governor who won in 1994 74-26 while Ken Blackwell who ran in 1994 for state treasurer, won 56-44.

If you look at EVERY STATEWIDE RACE BLACKWELL HAS EVER RUN.

He has been either last or next to last in percentage, among all statewide republican candidates in that year.

Just reporting what was on the local news in Columbus.

The latest has Portman as the leading GOP candidate. Said that he has been making the calls and has a nice campaign pot.

On the Democrat side they mention Lee Fisher and Jennifer Brunner. I think Brunner is in trouble though. Alot of people were upset about her actions during the election (early voting & absentee phase).

I believe it will be between Portman & Fisher. Just a matter of what Party is in deep crap or considered positive at that time.

Does no one remember his responsibilities and actions regarding Bolton and Shamnesty?
