I didn't realize that Ohio had so many knuckle-draggers

[PlanetBev]

They've elected Senators like John Glenn and Howard Metzenbaum.

What gives?

1. Every state has knuckledraggers

Every state has elected luminaries to office at one time or another, and every state has elected dimwitted losers. For example, my home state of Arkansas elected Bill Clinton governor, but now we're stuck with Mike Huckabee (and both are from the small town of Hope, by the way). We've sent some of the greatest men to Congress, like Sen. J. William Fulbright and Congressman Wilbur Mills, but also sent the likes of the Hutchinson Brothers there as well. I'm sure every state has a similar tale to tell.

10. thanks for the maynard photo, phish

as a Tool/APC fan I was quite tickled to see that....did you know maynard is from the boonies here in Ohio????
There are plenty of knuckle-draggers in Ohio, sorry!!!! You must stay within view of a skyscraper or a housing project to find thinking people in this state....you only have to travel about 15 miles outside the cities to be "in the middle of nowhere"....the suburbs are full of white people who care more about money and staying sheltered from the real world....

Plenty of good Democrats here in the heartland.
