Bob Taft's crooked friends know a good deal when they see one. Ted Strickland's record on taxes in Washington is the same as Bob Taft's record on taxes in Ohio. Taft's cronies know they can't buy off Blackwell, so they're making sure they get their mitts into Strickland.

I understand what they're doing. If I was a strong supporter of Bob Taft, I'd be enthusiastically supporting Strickland too. If you want 4 more years of Taft-and-spend economics, Ted Strickland is the obvious choice for Governor!
