8. Talking about Iraq

(Paraphrases)

Says was a mistake to go in. And administration did not listen to field officers.

Franken playing quotes from Schmidt and asking for Hackett's replies.

"Claims of WMD's was a mistake of history. Sadaam was contained. We had a fight in Afghanistan to finish first,"

"Should be razor sharp on mission of training Iraquis to take over so we can leave. It's not being done now.""

[Armstead]

9. Now talking about economy

160,000 manufacturing jobs left Ohio. His opponent never said a word about that.

His message is to send him to represent interests of Ohio candidates passionatly.

11. Al is playing segments of Schmidt's Hardball interview

and Paul Hackett is responding. She sounds like an idiot Bushbot and his answers are incredibly thoughtful and complete. Very, very impressive candidate. Of course, he still has a very uphill battle.

15. I Hope This Is On WCKY...

A great interview. The more I hear this man, the more I like his style. Hopefully "The Revolution" in Cincinatti is airing this and really backing this big election right in their own backyard.

Anyone listening and have a report?
