New seat has opened up in the House, as Ralph Regula has announced his retirement! OH-16 is competitive, and another headache for the GOP.

Johanns left his post a Argriculture Secrtary because he realised that Bush's ship is sinking and over in abt a yr, and he would be without a job if he didnt jump ship. The republican regime is over for at least another 4 yrs. In his view, this senate seat for a 6 yr term is a sure win.

well you should cleanup O street downtown ,while governor and west 0,and do something about those building's downtown.I will elect a democrat for infastructure,and to the stadium to get there alott easier.than all that traffic.and all those needless traffic lights.

Hey Matt, Hal Daub dropped out of the race two weeks ago and endorsed Johanns.

"It's time to restore the people's trust in a government that, in my judgment, has strayed too far from conservative values..." says the candidate.

Actually, our country has been dominated by Conservative principles for the past seven years, but Conservatives keep telling us that the way to fix the nation's problems is to "return" to Conservatism. This administration and the Reagan administration provided us with some good examples of what Conservatism is: (1)Say anything to get elected then do nothing you said. (2) When elected, try to bankrupt the country with deficit spending. (3) Meanwhile, pay your debts to the global corporations for all those campaign contributions you accepted by giving them BIG contracts with NO oversight and allow them to pretty much steal the government blind. (4) Give the wealthy enormous tax cuts and give the chumps a $50 tax cut. (5) Take heroic stands against flag burning, gay marriage, and children's programs.

God protect our Republic from more Conservatism.

Hal Daub has withdrawn from the GOP race. Assuming Kerrey decides to run, this race will be extremely competitive - check out these recently updated Senate Rankings.
