Special election in Ohio's 2nd
Has anyone seen any poll numbers on this special election between GOP nominee Jean Schmidt and Paul Hackett, a moderate Democrat who served in Iraq? From what I have been reading we may have a real chance to pick up this seat from the repubs. James Carville and Max Cleland, have both been to Ohio to campaign for Hackett.

2. No. I haven't seen the poll numbers but it appears he has an outstanding
chance .. i've been to his website. I liked what I read but that's meaningless except to say, he sure the hell doesn't sound like a war mongering neo-con - and of course he's going to be a good representative for the troops on the ground (one hopes) not the brass in the Pentagon armchairs.

Troops are the new underclass in this country. I have the sense that this candidate will be fighting on their behalf with everything he's got. but that needs to be checked.

3. It's the most puke seat in Ohio
Over 60% for * in 04. It's nice to make an effort in any special election (why not?) but don't expect him to even come close.
