1. He is hoeing a tough row. |
|
I wish him luck. Don't get discouraged if he doesn't win. I have family in a nearby area. They are quite discouraged about the chances of liberal candidates in their area. Hackett is a pioneer because he is talking common sense in a conservative enclave of the U.S. God bless him. He is a breath of fresh air. Eventually, our common sense approach to governing this country will prevail.

3. I don't live there, so I don't know, but I donated $20 to Paul today |
|
and I saw, on another DU post, that he received $100,000 campaign donations in one hour today, just before he was on the Ed Schultz Show.
I'm sure the Pubs are bombarding the airways, but Paul asid he had over 600 boots on the ground there for the last few weeks.
I wish I lived in his district so I could vote for him! He sounds like a very logical guy who can't be bought!!!!

5. Where exactly are you, AH? I grew up in Cincy; know firsthand how |
|
blindly "red" the area is. I also understand that this Hackett guy has a real chance,( provided the voting isn't rigged!). The whole country is watching this election closely.....

6. Is that their line of attack? "Liberal?" Like "Communist?" |
|

Seriously, is that their only criticism?
Hackett's side should mirror the ad w/his opponent and the words "Lying Crook".

9. We really have to start using the word liberal. |
|
We have to take it back. Calling each other liberals is a good way to start. Otherwise, it lets them use it freely.

10. Spending The Money, Eh??? |
|
That right there is a victory. Forcing the GOOP to spend big mnoney for a seat they thought was a safe one when Portman was kicked upstairs into the kleptocracy.
I'm hoping there's a lot of energized Democrats and Independents in the district who can't wait for the polls to open.
My bets are these spots are running cause the polls aren't just showing Hackett doing well, but also GOOP vote is down. This is to scare the sheeple...they're not looking to gain votes here, just to hang on to the ones they have. A low GOOP turn-out tomorrow and we could be in for a pleasant surprise!
