98.  I can't believe you aren't upset about this...
Brown can't carry Ohio. I have nothing against Brown, nothing at all. I think he has an excellent voting record, and I think he makes a great congressman. The problem is not Brown, the problem is the misconceptions of the people of Ohio themselves. For whatever reason the majority of people think that the term "Liberal" is a really bad thing. It will never fly. I just find it sad because Ohio has been devastated in the wake of the pukes. They need help now. Brown isn't going to be able to pull votes from anywhere but the left. Anyone on the fence will go to the right. The majority of people in Ohio will find him too far left of center. Hackett pulled votes from the right, and he had national recognition. Dems would have voted for him because he is a good guy and he has a D after his name. The right would have voted for him because he's a mans man who stood up to * on national TV. Plus Hackett carried a concealed weapons permit and the right thought that was cool. The point is Brown won't be able to pull votes like that, and that's what has to be had to win.
