If the Dispatch endorses Dewine, that ought to settle it -- that makes DeWine the last person on earth you'd want to vote for. Vote for Bill Pierce.

And the endorsement is such, total, rubbish. How "civil and professional" was it to trash Rumsfeld in a Salon Interview? And what "results" are we supposed to be impressed with?

What's the point of having a Republican senator if he almost never votes, acts, or speaks like a Republican?

Mike DeWine can only be seen as "conservative" on prolife issues, is a Johnny-come-lately on defending traditional marriage, and is either clearly not conservative or deafeningly silent on every other issue important to conservatives -- now even on the War on Terror!

Vote Bill Pierce on May 2 if you're in Ohio, and spread the word -- there's a legitimate conservative alternative who will support drilling in ANWR, defend our borders, etc., but most importantly, won't just let things happen without speaking up, as Ohio's senior incumbent senator has.

The grass-roots does not like Mike DeWine, and I mean REALLY doesn't like him. Bill Pierce has defeated Mike DeWine in three of five ballot-based GOP County endorsement processes, and has tied him once; that isn't supposed to happen to a two-term incumbent, BUT IT HAS.

The grass roots is responding to Bill Pierce who is a genuine and articulate conservative and will be the citizen legislator our Founders envisioned, in the mold of a Coburn or DeMint.

Bill Pierce needs our support. (Web Site; Pierce Blog; contribute)

More on Pierce's background and positions is at this previous FR post: HERE

Mike DeWine has only two allies: Apathy, and Inertia. Bill Pierce can crush both of them on May 2 if we support him now, and if Ohio conservatives turn out and vote their beliefs. Pierce for Senate.

If you are surprised by this selection, there isn't much I can do for you.......


I'm honestly amazed they even made a selection in this case.

His brand of civility and professionalism weinee-ness, not partisanship, yields results.

[Bommer]

solid reputation for integrity and a track record of independence in a Republican-dominated Congress.

Thats code for HE'S A DEMOCRAP!!!!!

I know this is going to come across as shallow, but somebody needs to do something about Pierce's photograph. He looks a little too robotic. The smile doesn't look genuine.

He need to get the full smile out there or the the tough, solid, and firm stare. Either one. But not his present look, which is inbetween the two.

I hope he succeeds. He sounds better than DeWine.

I have a real fear that the Ohio Republicans are so sick of our incompetent RINO representation including Taft, DeWine and Voinovich, not to mention the ugly gubernatorial primary TV advertising that they will just stay home and not vote.

[Ticonderoga34]

I'll be voting for Pierce on Tuesday. I have enough of DeWino the Rino.
