We Have a Unique Opportunity In the Ohio US Senate Race!!!!

[Corey_Baker08]

As a 20 year old resident of Ohio who proudly supported and met both Gov Ted Strickland and Senator Sherrod Brown, I gained a sense of pride in the elected leaders of the state of Ohio. Both are very real down to earth individuals who know the struggles of everyday Ohioans. Sen. Brown has been one of the most valuable liberal senators in the Senate a strong supporter of the Public Option as well. For the first time in my lifetime Ohio went blue for Obama in 2008. It was a great victory for me personally as I had campaigned so hard in the very conservative parts of Ohio. I see a unique opportunity in the US Senate Race that Republican Mike Dewine is vacating. I believe the voters of Ohio will elect SOS Jennifer Brunner for the US Senate Seat but we cannot do it without your help!

I believe that Governor Strickland has done the best for the buckeye state given the circumstances of the current economic situation. He is up for re election and I dont know of any serious opponent, he looks to be a shoe in for re election. Also I cannot stress enough the importance of the US Senate race in Ohio, current SOS Jennifer Brunner is likely to be the Democratic candidate to challenge retiring Senator Mike Dewines seat, I think we have a unique opportunity here and I ask all to go to http://jenniferbrunner.com / and donate to this terrific candidate. I have met her personally during the race for SOS in which she beat a famous Republican and she is down to earth. Also I did an interview with her for school about the questions regarding election fraud in the 2004 election in Ohio and she promised that as SOS we would never have to worry about election fraud and she was gonna make it so voting was more accessible to minorities and youth which she has done by enacting early voting in Ohio!

Cmon DU, this is truly a unique opportunity, stop by her website and show her your support!!!

Thanks,

Corey Baker

She is making a run at the seat that George Voinovich is vacating....Dewine lost his seat to Sherrod Brown a few years back.

Brunner should do well in the Senate race.

6. Yea but she has to ger past a 300 lb gorilla in the name of Lee Fisher...

Some people can't give up the dream and I believe Mr. Fisher is one of those folks.

He has lost two state-wide races and caused other people to go down in flames because he sucked all the money and energy away from candidates on the ticket. It has always been about Lee and screw anyone else. He thinks that he was the one who won Strickland his Gov. chair that Ted was floundering until Lee "graciously" agreed to join the ticket.

I've known Sherrod's since 1977 when I worked as a page in the Ohio House. He was barely older than we were. Smart, down to earth and a really astute student of politics even back then. We went to a Cavs game together back in 95, well there were a lot of other people there, but he always had a kind word for those around him.

I've only met Ms. Brunner once and she isn't particularly impressive face to face but I do know that she is smart, not affraid to take the right stand on issues and will be a good, steady voice for us in the Senate.

She has to beat former US Trade Representative, director of the OMB and long time congressman Rob Portman. Jean Schmidt now sit in his old seat. He is well respected by dems and rep both in his district. Never really controversial from what I can remember. He starts from a very solid base.

If Fisher wins, the battle ground will be in Columbus. If Brunner wins, the Battle will be in areas where McCain did well in 08. The key to win this seat is turnout, turnout, turnout...
