As you may know, the Ohio Legislature, faced with the loss of one congressional district due to reapportionment, carved up Traficant's present district (centered on Mahoning and Trumbull Counties--Youngstown, Niles and Warren). The north part of Traficant's current district was folded into the district now represented by Steve LaTourette, a GOPer. The south part of Traficant's current district was folded into the Ohio Valley district represented by RAT Ted Strickland.
Traficant filed to run as an Independent in the new 17th district, and he will run against LaTourette and a RAT state legislator.
I'm so touched! And Guinness is one of my favorites, too!
Thanks man. :)
LOL!!! Gosh, you must have had a late night. (just kidding :-))
Did she say she made a 280 degree turn instead of her usual 360 degree turn?
I hope we haven't heard the last of Traficant.
Nope
LaTourette is in OH-14 just north of Traf's district... Trafficant will run as an Independent against a RAT one term state rep and Ann Womer Benjamin (R) in OH-17.
That's not the case they aren't running against each other. LaTourette is a class act, though.

Condit voting "no" kind of gives me the creeps. I'd love to know what they know... I think. It makes me wonder if Condit was gotten out of the way on purpose, by killing his mistress. Wish we could get rid of every damn one of them, but I guess the voters like them.
I wonder how many of the ayes voted against impeachment of Clinton.
