Who Says?
How do you know I'm not working for a candidate? How do you know anything--does Jesus tell you?
Last I heard Blackwell is about 18-20 points behind Strickland. I expect the gap will grow, most people have just about had it with the Taft administration and anyone associated with it. I'd start planning for a Democrat victory across the board in Nov and the the tax slavery that goes with it!

Sore spot?
In response to the pathetic Blackwell supporter... my original posting kinda hit your sore spot, huh?
I don't know what I find to be more deplorable, your rants about Blackwell being ''rock solid'' or your ramblings about arm chair politicians. You know as much about me as I do about you. I am very much involved in the political scene in my community; making phone calls, going door to door, displaying signs in my yard. But this is the typical GOP response, attack and destroy what you do not understand. Hurl insults and accusations.
Sure, my posting followed an article in the Dispatch. But are you really going to say that the information reported is not true? Regardless of if Blackwell's assistant was told not to purchase the stock in Debold is not the point here. The point is that the purchase was made and Blackwell was in position to profit from it. In fact, I find it ridiculous that the stock was held for any period of time without being sold off immediately if a conflict was inferred or otherwise. Blackwell's excuse of ''I didn't know'' is pathetic and trite. Blame someone under you Mr Blackwell, that's the oldest game in the political world.

Time will tell.
I appreciate your optimism however as a Republican who has NEVER voted for a Democrat my vote is going to Strickland this year. Petro in May, but Strickland in November.
The Republicans at the Statehouse have screwed this state over. They've had their shot and they blew it. Ken's half-baked spending cap issue is nothing more then political garbage in an attempt to buy votes. It is extremely damaging to other government entities but he doesn't care as long as it buys him the Governors mansion, which I don't believe it will.
One Party politics just doesn't work, not at the National level, not at the State level, not at the county level, not anywhere.
I'm as conservative as they come but my party and my party candidates have let me down time and time again. It's time to change part of the power structure downtown and shake things up a bit. Ken's not the one to do that. If McCain wins the party nomination Ken will be his VP choice and OH will be nothing more than a stepping-stone for the VP office.

Talked to Ted
I actually talked to Mr. Strickland and told him the same stuff. I am a Republican but am abstaining from voting for any Republican candidates in May but voting Strickland in November. I asked Ted which R candidate he would rather face and he said that was easy - BLACKHEAD (my word, not his).
He said it would be much easier to beat Blackhead in November and thought the trouncing would finally send the message that we were on a new track toward recovery.
