Reply #8: Hackett has changed [View All]

[OzarkDem]

He's spending lots of time on tv and radio bashing all Dems, not just Sherrod Brown and he's using GOP/Rove talking points to do it.

Today in an interview on a Clear Channel radio station, he actually said that Sherrod Brown (a 7 term Congressman who voted against invading Iraq and against the Patriot Act) of being "against the troops". He then used the same broad brush to say the same about most Democrats.

He's become incredibly nasty in attacking Dems in a very public way and has become a perfect tool for the GOP news media. He's also attacking other Dems running in Ohio.

I realize some of you went nuts for the guy, but those of us here in Ohio desperately want a Dem governor, SOS, State Auditor and Atty General in this state, as well as a majority in the Ohio General Assembly. This is the best shot we've had to win the governors race in decades. Our candidates are running well, raising money and polling ahead of Republican opponents.

We're winning, folks and doing well here in Ohio. The last thing we need is for Paul Hackett to get on the radio or televison every day and bash our Dem candidates and say they're liberals who don't support the troops.

That may be acceptable in your state, but we don't need it here.

Thanks for understanding.
