Strickland beat Blackwell because the Dems threw 3 tons of crap at our guys hoping some would stick - some did - the rest was that the dems NEVER put forth any "plan" to do ANYTHING..they just used the "old song and dance" about government not caring, jobs etc.
Naturally, neither Strickland nor Brown had anything to say about what if anything they thought should be done with/about the war.
I consider the Dems, in this election, to have been "stealth candidates"....Running, but on nothing...
Yes,but the Republicans NEVER came fighting.
