Ohio GOP Senate Candidate Josh Mandel's Family Takes Out Newspaper Ad Denouncing His Anti-Gay Positions
Just over two weeks ago I posted a video of Ohio GOP senate candidate Josh Mandel espousing his anti-gay positions in debate, saying that he opposed 'DADT' repeal and is a supporter of marriage between a man and a woman, but promising to represent every resident of Ohio and be "blind" to sexual orientation. Some members of Mandel's family took a full-page ad out in the Cleveland Jewish News denouncing him: Open Letter to Josh Mandel, Republican Candidate for U.S. Senator from Ohio Dear Josh, Four years ago you came into our family. We still remember the excitement surrounding your wedding, and how happy our family members were as they described it afterwards. So we were deeply saddened when you announced during your October 18th debate with Senator Sherrod Brown that you believe only some people should share this right to marry the person they love, while others should not. Your cousins, Ellen Ratner and Cholene Espinoza, are among the many wonderful couples whose rights you do not recognize. They were married almost eight years ago in Massachusetts, at a time when it was the only state in the nation to allow same-sex marriage. Their wedding, like yours, was a beautiful and happy occasion for all of us in our family. It hurts us that you would embrace discrimination against them and countless other loving couples in Ohio and around the country. We are equally distressed by your belief that gay men and women should not be allowed to serve openly in the military. Like you, Cholene spent many years in the armed forces. A graduate of the Air Force Academy and an accomplished pilot, she became the second woman in history to fly the U-2 reconnaissance plane. And yet, you have argued that she, like many gay and lesbian soldiers, should be forced to live a life of secrecy and lies. Josh, as you know, our roots are deep in the Cleveland area and we have friends and family we love throughout Ohio. This family is sprawling and diverse, but it has always believed strongly in the values of equality and inclusiveness. Your discriminatory stance violates these core values of our family. Nevertheless we hope that over time, as you advance in years and wisdom, you will come to embrace the values of inclusiveness and equality as well. Your cousins, Michael Ratner, Bruce Ratner, Karen Ranucci, Pamela Lipkin, Rebecca Ratner, Elizabeth Ratner, Patrick Markee, Jacob Ratner, Ana Ratner Read more: http://www.towleroad.com/2012/11/ohi...#ixzz2BdXa6Rmf http://www.towleroad.com/2012/11/ohi...y-positio.html

Dead candidates win elections in Florida, Alabama
(Reuters) - Florida Democrat Earl K. Wood and Alabama Republican Charles Beasley won their respective elections but they will not take office.
Both men died weeks before the November 6 election yet managed to beat their very much alive opponents by comfortable margins. http://news.yahoo.com/dead-candidate...202607386.html

I knew that Earl K Wood had passed away and I did my research on the guy replacing him and voted for Earl K Wood. Scott Randolph seemed to be a better candidate than Huckeba.

I've been looking around the webs at the different networks the night of the election. I found this clip of Diane Sawyer. Wow. Giving her the benefit of the doubt, maybe she was just really tired, but who knows. The tweets were so funny. Dang, i had 2 margaritas, was loaded on carbs and a ton of comfort junk food and my words weren't slurring as bad as hers.

I think she was just worn out. I'll take her coverage over the other two boring anchors anyday.
