51. I don't think anyone is questioning that..
Edited on Wed Feb-15-06 02:53 PM by converted_democrat
No one is saying that Brown isn't a good guy.. The problem is the people of Ohio, and what the term "liberal" means to them.. Liberal is a dirty word in Ohio.. If we were dealing with rational people the record would be the only factor and we would win by a landslide, but that's not what we're working with.. There isn't anyway that Brown can carry the state because in Ohio you need the moderates voters on your side to win because there is such a large section of people that fall under that title. Moderates would have voted for Hackett, but they won't vote for Brown.. That's where the problem lies.. There is no way that Brown can win because he has already been tagged with the "liberal" sign.. That's what the problem is. It isn't Brown, it's the mentality of the voters of Ohio.. There is no way that that hurdle can be jumped by the time the election rolls around.
