Just curious, what's your response to this vis a vis Schmidt:
NTU Rates Ohio’s Washington Delegation; BizzyBlog Does the Calcs on Jean Schmidt

Schmidt's short-year rating was the same as Boehner's and better than everyone in OH except Chabot. Surprised me.
Of course DeWine stunk up the place.
Mean Jean has known since Day 1 that she'd be facing a challenge from the right in the 2006 primary. She's voting the conservative line now, knowing that if she wins this year it would probably be the last serious challenge against her.
She did the same thing in the Legislature. Went in as a conservative, voted conservative for a couple years, then turned into a Taft and Spend RINO. She voted for Bob Taft's huge Sales Tax hike. Then she voted to raise Ohio's Gas Tax by 27%. Then she authored legislation raising hotel taxes in SW Ohio.
Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. I am no longer fooled by Mike DeWine and Jean Schmidt. Bill Pierce for US Senate. Bob McEwen for US House.
