#68 Vote today!

Today we go to the polls. It is really low-key around here. A few judgeships (Tweedledum running against Tweedledee) are getting most of the TV ads. There is a jobs program our Republican governor wants to have passed. It is to bring high tech jobs to Ohio--the third frontier he calls it, agriculture being the first, and manufacturering the second.

In one of the races I noticed "non-practicing Methodist" listed beside the Religion category for a candidate. It seems a little odd to list religion in secular election bios, but if you have to put something, I don't think "non-practicing" sounds like a good recommendation for a politician. Sleeps in? Hasn't paid his pledge? Doesn't like the choir? Got mad at a committee meeting because he couldn't have his own way?
