Post a Comment*Talk about news that's not worth putting in the print edition.
Whoo-Hoo! I will gleeful at the demise of Kenny Blackwell and Mikey Dewine. I can't wait for their concession speeches!
Mike Dewine ran a nasty, losing campaign against John Glenn in 1992. That's the last time he had any real competition. This year the REAL Mike Dewine resurfaced, and it wasn't pretty.
Dewine's one of the few good guys in Congress. It's why almost all major newspapers in Ohio have endorsed him. It's unfortunate that he's being swept up in the "I hate George Bush" midterm election. I'm not a Bush supporter, but at least vote the candidates and not the party. Electing all Democrats (or Republicans) isn't going to bring the troops home on Wednesday.

Um... nothing is going to bring the troops home on Wednesday! If Dewine was such a 'good guy" he wouldn't be backing the Bush administrations many attempts to destroy the Constitution and America's lower and middle class.
Not until we can IMPEACH BUSH/CHENEY/RUMSFELD for lying a nation into an unjust, illegal and immoral war and bring them up on charges for being complicit in 9/11, election fraud, being war profiteers and war criminals and found guilty of treason. Then we send them to Guantanamo where they belong!
Then maybe this nation can start to heal itself and return to being a democratic Republic.

One party rule in this particular do nothing GOP congress is the problem. We have separate coequal branches of government. This congress has failed us. Heaven help us if we fail to hold this president accountable. He is not an emperor who decides what laws he wishes to abide by.
There is $8 billion misswing in Iraq and the GOP doesn't care. That is your grandchildren's money.
These stories are titillating but beyond that if polling were so accurate then why even conduct a full vote of the entire electorate?
Let's say the poll says that someone has an advantage of greater than 6% over their opponent and the percentage of error for the poll is 5%. Well the margin of the one candidate over the other one overcomes that 5% margin of error wouldn't that mean that the poll "scientifically" assures a victory for this person?
I think this language undermines the community aspect of a democracy and means that a 3000 (or often smaller) person pool of people (reports from those polled were with pollster bias) can represent an entire voting body from anywhere from a few thousand in Hamilton county or to millions across the entire country.
This is not smart and certainly the past history of polling accuracy lack of accuracy would state that the "science" characterization is pretty weak.
