Blackwell's take....
Gene Pierce, spokesman for Ken Blackwell’s gubernatorial campaign, made this statement today in response to Auditor Betty Montgomery’s announcement that she's out of the governor's primary race.
“Phil Heimlich and Betty Montgomery have dropped out of the gubernatorial race to help the Republican Party. Jim Petro should follow suit and drop out to help the party, too. Betty Montgomery is a great public servant, and we look forward to having her somewhere on the November ticket.”
Note the word "somewhere.'' It doesn't sound like Pierce is fully convinced Petro will stay in the governor's race. Pierce also pointed out that Blackwell leads in primary and general election match-ups in all recent polls, raised more money than all other candidate in the latest filing period and has a grassroots network of more than 10,000 supporters across the state.

Post a Comment*There have been five posts so far today. There was an average of 1 post ever 19.4 minutes until the Blackwell post. Blackwell's rant about party loyalty was posted at 11:43 am and has been the top post on the page for over 3 and a half hours. Everyone knows the Enquirer is going to whore for Blackwell. I guess it starts now.
Blackwell will lose. He tops out at around 30% of the Republican vote. Once he loses the lead he's been flaunting for the past year, there will be no way for him to come back. His campaign has gone extremely negative because they're running scared now. So much for the 'double digit lead' he's been talking about for months....
Hey buddy, you need to learn to like Blackwell cuz he is going to be your next guv.
Blackwell is arrogant and has no clue how to govern.....he has done an awful job as Secretary of State...My God, his office spending has at least double from when Taft was Secretary. He talks a good game but there is no substance there. The Democrats will crush him! We need Petro to carry our Republican banner!
How is it someone responsible for overseeing the election process is ... um ... running for office?
Vote this shyster out.
