You'd think that Republican Josh Mandel, Ohio's absent Treasurer, would have learned by now that people do not like liars. Josh Mandel's campaign has been the source of so many lies that many voters are just disgusted.
If you look at statements from Mandel and Sen. Sherrod Brown, you'd see that one candidate has a higher percentage of lies (Hint: Josh Mandel).

As an example of the stupidity of the elected Republicans, I present the GOP in Michigan-----
BoingBoing:
Michigan state rep Rep. Lisa Brown intervened in a debate about a pending abortion bill in which she used the word "vagina," for which she was censured, and prohibited from participating in some future, unrelated debates. She was not the only woman legislator prohibited from speaking during the debate. Rep. Barb Byrum was barred from introducing her amendment requiring men to prove that their lives were at risk before they were allowed to have a vasectomy.
Brown, a Democrat, argued that her Jewish faith allowed for therapeutic
abortions
when the mother's life is in danger without regard to length
of pregnancy.
"I have not asked you to adopt and adhere to my religious beliefs. Why
are you asking me to adopt yours?" she said. But what came next is what
got her in trouble: "And finally, Mr. Speaker, I'm flattered that you're
all so interested my vagina, but 'no' means 'no.'"
The Republicans in Michigan are afraid to say "vagina", but they are willing to legislate about it. Soon we'll hear reports that Michigan Republicans have placed tape over the mouths of women.
I hope that people, especially women, wake up and vote for Democrats!!!
