Democrats trample Portune's front yard

Hamilton County commisisoner Todd Portune may have to call the lawn care guys next spring, after the pounding his front yard took Saturday afternoon.

Portune issued a call to all Hamilton County Democrats, particularly those on the west side, to show up in front of his home in a Green Township subdivision Saturday to rally for Democratic candidates and sign up for get-out-the vote phone banks and canvassing.

About 100 materialized, and heard campaign stump speeches from county commission candidate David Pepper and 1st Congressional District candidate John Cranley.

Volunteer sign-up sheets were set up on tables on one side of the front yard; hot dogs and soft drinks sat on tables on the other side.

As most of those who attended had already booked their volunteer time for the stretch run of the campaign, the hot dog table had more customers.

Howard, maybe you can ask Todd Portune how it is he plans on voting for Connie Pillich for State Rep when he lives in Green Township. That's Bill Seitz' district.

Pillich is running against Jim Raussen. That district spans from Forest Park to Montgomery.

How can Portune go on the air on WLW and say he is voting for PIllich? Is he illegally registered to vote across town? Is he going to vote more than once? Is he going to join other Democrats and get on busses to vote as many times as possible?

Oh, wait, Portune and Pillich are Democrats. Being a Democrat means never having to endure consequences for your illegal behavior. Just ask Mark Foley and Bob Ney. Then go ask Ted Kennedy and Gary Condit. Democrats get away with murder, so why not a little vote fraud, too, just for fun?

Typical wRong wingnut whacko spewing the elephant dung everywhere !

Why don't you tell the public how the little, do nothing, jim raussen holds and maintains the same ideology of Iraq, China, North Korea, Taliban, and Iran ?

You see, those whacko leaders don't believe an individual has the right to an attorney or fair trial either !

The constitutional-suppressing raussen is running attack ads because the honorable Connie Pillich defends the constitution and defends those that can't defend themselves, period !

PATHETIC !
