Stuck in traffic might best typify the upcoming campaign by democratic challenger to Ken Blackwell’s bid for the Governor’s spot.
Strickland was in town Saturday to give an address to his supporters and outline his Turn Around Ohio plan.
As the crowd waited, Democratic statehouse candidate Dennis Shreefer spoke about the TEL Amendment, Democratic 4th Congressional District candidate Rick Siferd made his appeal and Lima Mayor David Berger spoke to the crowd.
Once Strickland entered the room, he asked the crowd,
???Are you ready for a change????
The room erupted with applause and cheer. Strickland went on to talk about growing up in a small town, the TEL Amendment and his competitor.
Ohio is ready for a change and is the main reason solid conservative candidates were chosen for the ticket in the fall. No one really buys the same old liberal agenda spun into a new look. Even the idea of helping parents with education funds isn’t new. Just an old idea given a new name.
???We???re going to put some resources in those savings accounts so when their children are ready to go to college, they???ll be able to afford college. We call that the Knowledge Bank,??? he said.
It isn’t a new concept and it also seems vaguely familiar to the excellent idea proposed by the President for medical funds. The democrats can’t even come up with a new creative idea and if they do then they know it would be rejected because they are too liberal for Americans.
