"A bit of butt kicking"

At 11:40 p.m., the vote 63 percent for Hamilton County Common Pleas Court Judge Patrick Dinkelacker to become a 1st District Court of Appeals Judge, Dinkelacker spoke out at his campaign party downtown.

He was greeted by cheers.

“It looks very, very good. I’ve got promises to keep to people, to myself, my family, especially my family, and to you all. I told you I would do everything I could do to take this home.You guys know me. I wanted to do this above board and right. And thanks to you all, we did it right. And when opponent didn’t, we still did. You know what every once in awhile the nice guy does finish first.

...I think we did a little bit of butt kicking tonight."

At that, the group, many prosecutors and people who work in the courthouse, erupted into cheers.

There's a simple answer to that, Broken Glass.

The "progressives" at the Enquirer editorial board went ga-ga over a liberal college professor who has never tried a case in his life and who doesn't even know that citizens and attorneys can obtain court records simple by going online or going to the clerk's office. He was their "cup of tea."

They had a chance to do the right thing and rescind his endorsement (like they did to Lee Hildebrandt) when the Ohio Supreme Court sanctioned him and fined him $5000 for his ad against Judge Dinkelacker.

No matter, no one pays attention to their endorsements anyway.

Hope this helps, Broken Glass.
