I thought DeWine was moving up in the polls. How do you see the race from your perspective?
From my perspective, DeWine fell behind during the summer and is slowly regaining lost ground, but Brown is still the slight favorite.
If Ohio swings heavily to the 'Rats this year, the press will call it a rejection of George W. Bush, but it'll actually be a rebuke of Bob Taft.
I don't buy this poll. The paper questioned registered voters only, it's a mail-in questionnaire and Dewine is "losing" the Catholic vote (he's a practicing Catholic). Makes no sense. I'd wait and see what the University of Cincinnati Poll says.
Frankly, I certainly don't like Brown even a little bit but on the other hand, DeWhine is no prize. How do we ever vote in a sane government when the choices come down to the lesser of 2 evils, if one even exists. Even more unfortunately, this scenario is being duplicated all over the country. It's so rare to find a really top notch candidate for anything. Even dog catcher.
