Avromi - I receive regular emails (newsletters, bulletins etc.) from NJDC. A lot of those groups let you sign up for their free emailed newsletters. I do, of course, delete a large percentage, and I do get some from "both sides of the aisles." I like to canvas you might say.

Also, I just saw a post this evening on the Solon Democratic Club's blog about Josh Mandel inability to say whether he is voting for Ken Blackwell. I met with Josh for a couple of hours back in June and I didn't ask him that question, though I did express my curiosity about how his campaign website doesn't contain the word Republican to indicate his party affiliation.

That's his prerogative, of course, but I have to say, if you're going to run for an elected office, and you have beliefs, I don't know - I just feel as though you'd think the person running would feel solidly enough about his affiliation to include it on his campaign website. Josh knows I feel this way. And I know I'm not the only one.

Anyway - just food for thought on the erev before the erev.
