Can't Stand Watching

* We always watch the Today Show in the morning. This morning, however, I had to change the channel as soon as I saw Laura Bush. She was talking about the White House's Christmas decorations and I could not bear to watch.

* I did watch a few minutes of the You Tube/CNN GOP debate last night. Watching so many pompous white men was too much to take and I had to change the channel.

* The Franklin County GOP is, according to The Other Paper, "...a dying party." Here are some excerpts from The Other Paper's article about the Franklin County Republicans:

Brad Sinnott, chairman of the Franklin County Republican Central Committee, thinks he knows how to resuscitate his dying party.

It can’t be saved by himself or Doug Preisse, the party’s chairman, or Steve Stivers, its much-hyped congressional candidate, or even Dewey Stokes, who might run for county commissioner again.

To rescue the Columbus Republicans, Sinnott is counting on a thin-skinned, cross-dressing, thrice-married New Yorker who is disliked by his own children.....

Sinnott goes on to say that Giuliani could have some crossover appeal to some Democrats in central Ohio. Really? What Democrats in Franklin County has Sinnott been talking to in recent weeks???? Most Democrats I know are repulsed by Giuliani and the rest of the Republican candidates.

If Mr. Sinnott would talk to Democrats in Franklin County and the state of Ohio, he would learn the following:

1. The Republican Party and Bob Taft misused public trust. (ex. Coingate, Tom Noe, Bob Ney, etc.).

2. Ohioans are disgusted with the Republican scandals.

3. Ohioans love Gov. Ted Strickland.

4. Central Ohioans will elect a Democrat to Congress, and not another pro-business, bank lobbyist to represent us.

5. People are looking forward to the date 1.20.09 because our long national nightmare will be over.
