Depressing Numbers for Ohio Republicans :)

Found at Democratic Underground:
Zogby is reporting big problems for Ohio Republicans. Here is an excerpt from the article:

With Ohio Gov. Bob Taft’s job approval numbers continuing as the worst in the nation, and with just over one in four (28%) giving incumbent Republican Sen. Mike DeWine good marks for his work in Washington, one of the nation’s premiere swing states appears ready for a Democratic take-over, a new Wall Street Journal/Zogby Interactive poll shows.

Just 6% give Taft good marks for the job he is doing leading the state, the survey shows. In the Senate race, a head-to-head match-up against Democrat Sherrod Brown, the congressman from northeast Ohio who is giving up his seat to challenge Senator DeWine this year, Brown leads DeWine by a 46% to 37% margin.

Brown’s margin over DeWine closely mirrors the sentiments of voters statewide, who said that, by a 43% to 35% margin, Democratic Party leaders more reflect their values than Republican Party leaders. Asked whether Democratic or Republican members of the Ohio congressional delegation more shared their values, respondents favored Democrats by a 42% to 37% margin...

Of course, Democrats share the values of Ohio's citizens. Democrats continue to promote laws that help workers, families of all kinds, the elderly, the poor, the working poor, the disenfranchised, college students, and others. Republicans support businesses and corporations. All Ohioans are sick of the culture of corruption that surrounds the Republicans.
