Here is the Election Countdown Counter at Mike DeWine's campaign site as it appeared on Wednesday, April 19 (go to bottom of page):
It's one thing, if you're Mike DeWine, to be looking forward to the general election on November 7.
It's another to be so confident of a primary victory that you use a clock that counts down to the general election.
But it's beyond belief, after getting your CLOCK CLEANED (so to speak) three out of five times in ballot-based county endorsement meetings (eking out one tie and one win), to not even acknowledge that there's a Primary Election taking place on May 2.
(On the bright side, maybe his supporters will forget there IS a primary on May 2.)
What do you say we stop Mike DeWine's clock dead in its tracks at 189?
Tell your friends and family -- There's a genuine conservative, citizen-legislator alternative. He's Bill Pierce. His web site is here. His blog is here. Contribute here.
Vote for Bill Pierce on May 2.
On Primary Election Day, let's have Bill Pierce take over custody of that November election clock.
Four out of the five times Mike DeWine was involved in ballot-based county endorsement proceedings, he failed to win. He LOST in Knox County (to Pierce), he LOST in Clermont County (to Pierce), he LOST as noted above in Fulton County (to Pierce and Smith), and he could only tie Pierce in Preble County. DeWine's sole win was in Miami County.
The grass-roots does not like Mike DeWine, and I mean REALLY doesn't like him.
The grass roots is responding to Bill Pierce who, as you can see from the interview, is a genuine and articulate conservative and will be the citizen legislator our Founders envisioned, in the mold of a Coburn or DeMint.
Bill Pierce needs our support.

My personal bumper sticker graphic:
Mike DeWine has only two allies: Apathy, and Inertia. Bill Pierce can crush both of them on May 2 if we support him now, and if Ohio conservatives turn out and vote the issues in the voting booth. Let's roll.
Opps, wrong thread, sorry.
It's nice to hope, but I'd bet my entire life savings on a DeWine win.
Not saying I like it, not at all, but it's no-doubt reality.
If you're from OH, at least vote Pierce to narrow the margin, and let me hope for the upset.
Great! Spread the word!
