Ohio FOP endorses Cordray for AG
The Ohio Fraternal Order of Police has endorsed Democrat Richard Cordray for attorney general in the Nov. 4 election.
“Richard Cordray was the clear choice,” Nick DiMarco, Ohio FOP president, said in a press release on Friday, Sept. 5. “Given Cordray’s track record of support for law enforcement, commitment to public employees and proven leadership in public office, Cordray will make an exceptional attorney general.”
Cordray, now Ohio treasurer, is running against Republican Mike Crites, a former U.S. attorney and Columbus attorney. Independent Robert Owens also is in the race.
With 25,000 members, the Ohio FOP says it is the largest law enforcement organization in the state.

Jim is just trying to get the negative talking points on any forum that he comes across. This is the typical DAILY KOOKS or KOS as the demoncrats know it. Oh yeah, OBAMA will take more of our money, expand social services so lazy a$$e$ can sit and get fatter, unions can try and make a comeback and of course, his peeps like the mayor of detroit, kwame kilpatrick will continue to go to jail. didn’t obama say that he and kwame were cut from the same cloth?? which is corruption and lying? what about REZKO jimmy? elite versus the criminal….think I’ll choose McCain..By Ethel S.

Palin is scary if you research her positions. She opposes abortion in all cases, wanted to censor libraries, is under an ethics investigation for abuse of power, wants (ironically) only abstinence taught in sex ed, wants creationism taught in science classes, said,”It’s God’s will that this pipeline be built”, has past ties with Alaskan Independence Party, lied about the bridge to nowhere, hired lobbyists to gain Washington earmarks, etc….This is who John McCain thinks is his best replacement should something happen to him????? McCain has totally sold out to right wing neos of the party for political advantage. Obama is a breath of fresh air. Someone who is smart and thinks before responding. He cares about the average person who’s trying to make it in this country, not just the country club set. McCain owns seven houses and Cindy’s outfit was over 300k. They talked about the Washington Elite. THEY ARE THE WASHINGTON ELITE. No, it’s time for Obama and Biden.
