John Lott's Website: Blackwell quickly closing the gap in Ohio Gubernatorial race

5/25/2006

Hotline reports that "Dems Thinking, 'OH No'?: Latest OH GOV poll has Strickland up just 6 and Blackwell nabbing 1/3 of blacks."

Anonymous said...: You are a complete moron. In case you did not know, the NRA supported Ted Strickland. It's not like anyone is going to take your guns. I am a democrat and have a conceal carry permit. The last thing I am concerned about is if someone will want to take that right away. If they do it won't be Ted Strickland. His main focus will be on the econoy and education. He is not going to focus on gay marriage and abortion, or gun bans. Those are non issues. Gun bans don't prevent crime and neither has taft. A healthy eceonmoy and strong schools will deter crime. When people are working they don't have time, or the need, to commit crime.; 6/15/2006 11:50 PM
John Lott said...: I didn't realize that I had said that people should support Blackwell be Strickland was going to take people's guns or because of abortion. Can you point to where I said that? I think that it would be great for many reasons to have Blackwell elected governor of Ohio, the primary one being that if you care about economic growth, he will cut taxes, reduce regulations, and encourage firms to expand in the state. I think that Blackwell is also the best candidate on education.; 6/15/2006 11:56 PM
