Ohio Democrats are on the air, trashing DeWine for his
failures on the intelligence committee:
It's sad. Mike DeWine exploiting images of 911 to smear Sherrod Brown." "Brown voted for the death penalty for terrorists, ..." "...tougher port security, tighter borders, ..." "...and led the fight against bioterrorism." "DeWine? He failed us on the intelligence committee before 911..." "...and on weapons of mass destruction." "He supported trade deals with China even after thousands of lost jobs..." " ... and the transfer of sensitive military technology. That's not protecting Ohio.
Looks like Dems are finally learning that it makes little sense to pretend national security isn't an issue. Republicans have made a disaster of our two wars, of our foreign policy, of our military preparedness, and failed to take actions to prevent 9-11 from happening (and it did happen on their watch, despite being properly warned that Al Qaida was planning to strike the United States).
Why have Democrats been so afraid to go on he offensive for so long?
Thankfully, those days appear to be behind us. At least in Ohio.
