Sherrod Brown- Cares About Ohio

* Sen. Sherrod Brown (OH-Democrat) spoke recently about President Obama's accomplishments. RealClearPolitics:

....Sen. Sherrod Brown, who faces a tough re-election battle against the youthful Republican state treasurer, Josh Mandel, offered the line of the night Friday at the Ohio Democratic Party’s Legacy Dinner, its second biggest fundraising event  of the year: "We've seen manufacturing job growth in the United States and in the state of Ohio for 21 straight months."

...Beneath the united front on manufacturing that Democrats are presenting to Republicans were other themes, as well. One was the palpable desire to make certain that every voter understands Mitt Romney is much wealthier than they are. “My wife doesn’t drive two Cadillacs,” Brown said at an event earlier this week, in reference to Romney's comment that his wife had not one, but two, luxury cars. “She drives a Dodge,” Brown said....

......Betty Sutton, a two-term House Democrat who faces a redistricting fight, joked that her opponents in 2010 had said she ought to get out of the House and back in the kitchen. She laughed that her husband wouldn’t know what to do with her in the kitchen and vowed to defeat the one-term congressman, Jim Renacci, whom she’ s running against.....


Perhaps Jim Renacci should be sent aprons so that he would go back into the kitchen.


With all that is going on with the Republican war on women, we need to remind ourselves about the Medina County GOP 2010 newsletter that got a lot of women upset.


A recent Medina GOP mailer that urges voters to "take Betty Sutton out of the House and put her back in the kitchen," has angered the Emily's List political action committee, which raises money for female Democratic candidates.....

This is how Republicans view women?
