This is NOT an election in which I would want to have to vote. http://www.cleveland.com/opinion/index.ssf/2011/10/kucinich_vs_kaptur_will_be_qui.htmlWhat is your opinion, since the voters in greater Cleveland have no choice but to pick one over the other.

1. Well, neither are great, but they are the best Cleveland has at this point. |
|
I really wish the Republicans in Ohio suddenly have heart attacks, and die before the gerrymander is complete. Including Kasich.
Ugh.
Defeat SB 5!

12. Long time to wait for that |
|
Brown's up in 2012, but I doubt Kucinich would challenge another liberal democrat in a primary. Portman's a freshman - just sworn in this year, so he can't be challenged until 2016.
Kucinich is a career house man. There's no way he could be competitive statewide.

16. Others know more about this than me |
|
I do know that there are plenty of places in Ohio that have been losing population and Kucinich country fits the bill. Kucinich is from northern Ohio - Great Lakes country. That region includes parts of many states has been losing population for a while know as our manufacturing sector declines.
Although it's satire, Cleveland's thing that: 'We're not Detroit' does have a ring of truth to it.
My hometown is in SW Ohio and we've been losing people too, though not as fast as parts of Northern/Northeastern Ohio.

Serving her fourteenth term in the House of Representatives, Kaptur is the most senior member of Ohio's congressional delegation, and is the longest-serving woman in the House; in the Congress, she is currently the fourth longest-serving woman, behind Senators Barbara Mikulski, Olympia Snowe, and Barbara Boxer. She ranks 25th out of 435 members in seniority and serves on the powerful House Appropriations Committee.

Dennis has been the most outspoken anti-corporate Democratic legislator for years.
It's too bad people didn't have the common sense to elect him President, we wouldn't be in the awful mess we're in right now.
