Blackwell must climb up to get in the gutter: insinuates Strickland is gay
Edited on Mon Oct-23-06 09:09 PM by beaconess
Blackwell's attacks on foe getting personal; Strickland's sexual orientation questioned

Three months ago, merely referencing a Web page that questioned whether the Democratic nominee for governor was gay cost an Ohio Republican Party staffer his job.

This week, Republican nominee Ken Blackwell sent reporters an e-mail that quoted Fox News commentators accusing Democrat Ted Strickland of vacationing in Italy with a “boy toy.”

No one at the state GOP complained.

Wednesday, November 8th.

3. Yet Shitcinnati's right wing rag endorses this clown.
"I suck? Well, you're gay!"

Because this is all he has to offer, folks. Gay bashing and bad economics.

4. Strickland can't be gay - he's not a Republican
Maybe Blackwell should look in the mirror - these may be his repressed wishes.

5. He and DeWine are both getting really desperate
They've both gone negative in a very big way, but its not likely to help. It will only keep their hard core supporters from defecting or staying home on election day.

I drove across the state today and the airwaves were full of their ads, but there were plenty of Strickland and Brown yard signs and bumper stickers.

6. I live in SE Ohio and haven't seen one Blackwell sign here,
most of the Repugs I know would not vote for him simply because he is black. The only way he could possibly win is by the Diebold machines.
