and yes i am fully cognizant that it makes me sound like a pat robertson nutjob, but it’s truly what i believe.
These folks are on the ground in my old home state and they know what they're talking about....LS is a professor at one of the universities in the state and I'm pretty sure he has connections into the Republican machine in the Southern Ohio, Cincinnati region and those connections have information from throughout the state.
