Is that Keiser guy running against Sherrod Brown really a Democrat?
Edited on Sat Feb-18-06 02:21 PM by madfloridian
This is really weird, and I hope people there don't get mad and vote for him out of anger. Renee is right in her post at HEP, there is almost nothing about him in search engines...that kind of person can totally disrupt a primary if folks are angry.

Sherrod Brown's "Democratic" primary challenger

Renee refers to a local Ohio newspaper article about this guy. I say beware.

"Okay, because it's "what I do", and I can't find a direct link to the article online. I even tried Bugmenot.com, but it didn't yield a working email/password combination. And when I tried to find *anything* about the alleged Democrat who is running against Sherrod Brown (that "proud black man" hoping to unseat Mike DeWine, I came up empty-handed. So I'm going to go ahead and type up some of the copy of this Sandusky Register article that appears as a scan over at Buckeye Senate blog.

I want the information to be out there for anyone who might otherwise consider voting for the "other guy" as a protest vote against the coronation of Brown by party insiders."

Senate hopeful says world's turned from God

Evolution is bunk and homosexuality should be a capital crime, says Fremont truck driver seeking DeWine's seat."

A Fremont truck driver running in the Ohio Democratic U.S. Senate primary says there needs to be more adherence to Biblical values in government, business, and education.

Merrill Keiser, 61, of Fremont, said incumbent Sen. Mike DeWine does not embody the God-driven values that need to be in the government.

"I believe that the United States has been moved in a Godless direction by the courts," he said. "To get good men on the court, we need good senators."

Business scandals and school shootings could be prevented if the Bible and prayer were followed in industry and schools, Keiser said.

Despite being on the Democratic ticket, Keiser said he is pro-death penalty, pro-gun, and pro-school prayer. He wouldn't be against making homosexuality a crime punishable by the death penalty. The United States should make conversion to Christianity part of the "war on terror" to teach Muslims the error of their choice in religion.


Read it. Renee is transcribing from the article itself, as the scan at Buckeye is missing some "edges" on it.

1. I wouldn't worry to much about it....
If he has no money, he will get a miniscule amount of votes...

Very few people are concerned one way or another with Hackett or Brown...

Most people just don't pay attention to politics like we do....

2. Sorry, but it is happening in my area right now.
People are angry, and they are seriously considering someone for an office who has problems. They are interested, because she is new to them.

4. No, the one in my area...she.
People are upset enough here that they are considering this woman. I did not realize it at first, then I started getting emails about it.
