Thousands of Ohioans particpated in the Nominating process!
Overwhelmingly, it came down to these four:
SENATOR GEORGE VOINOVICH: Almost 100 respondents nominated Ohio's senior U.S. Senator for a variety of reasons, most commonly his backwards priorities. As one Cuyahoga county resident put it: "What heartless person would vote against improved health care for children in order to continue financing a war in which children are injured or killed every day?" The Senator said he was concerned about the direction of the war, then each time the issue came to the floor he voted for President Bush's funding proposals.
CONGRESSMAN JOHN BOEHNER: Congress' Conservative House leader from Ohio, and President George Bush's chief obstructionist. Boehner led the fight to hold back accountability on money spent in Iraq, on freezing the Children's Health Care funding, on money for education, veteran's services including post-traumatic stress disorder, and even fought a federal minimum wage increase.
PHIL BURRESS: A number of nominations poured in for Citizens For Community Values leader and self-admitted porn-addict Phil Burress for his anti-porn crusade. He who led the passage of 2004's Gay Marriage Amendment sidetracked Ohio's political landscape from talking about jobs, education and healthcare – and instead turned it into a debate on how to impose Phil Burress' morality on the rest of Ohio's 11 million plus citizens.
CONGRESSMAN STEVE CHABOT: The Cincinnati Congressman was the second most nominated Ohioan, almost all for one reason – his stubborn refusal to break with the President on expanding children's health care.
