As Howie says, she’s a good one:
This is exactly how 2008 should have ended the electoral fortunes of the Democrats– the real deal, Mary Jo, who will go to Congress to fight like a tiger on behalf of working families, defeating some GOP slug– while a crook and a right-wing Democrat go down in flames. I like it! Stivers has conceded and the local media is hailing Mary Jo as the victor. The final vote count:
Mary Jo Kilroy- 139,582
Steve Stivers- 137,271
Now we just have to see if Franken can pull it out in the Senate.

Kilroy was here.
I’ll trade a a Kilroy for a Jeffer$on any day.
WONDERFUL news!!!
Ha! That was carved all over the bleachers at Bemidji State when I was a kid.
Kilroy IS Here!
Mary Jo’s very brief wiki.
Donna Edwards is on C-Span right now.

Thanks.
I am so glad! It seemed like Stivers was always ahead. I think I even read so this morning in The Columbus Dispatch.
Donna Edwards is smarter than shit. I’m really impressed with her. She has a low key delivery, she answers every question easily.
Edwards is wonderful.
I HAVE A DEMOCRATIC REPRESENTATIVE IN THE HOUSE! First time ever in my life!
Two years ago, my leaders in the Federal government were George Voinovich, Mike Dewine, Debbie Pryce, and George Bush. Bob Taft was my Governor, and Ken Blackwell was my Secretary of State.
Now, Voinovich is still there, but the rest have been replaced by Sherrod Brown, Mary Jo Kilroy, Barack Obama, Ted Strickland and Jennifer Brunner. And that was in just two years! What an ass-kicking comeback.
Candidly, firepups, wouldn’t you agree that we Buckeye Democrats are the shits?
Don’t forget to check back on Mary Jo’s recent chat right here on the Lake (to which I would link, but the links are not working on preview for some reason, so you’ll have to enter “Mary Jo Kilroy” into the search box). She’s a true blue liberal, y’all are gonna like her.
Maybe she can teach Pelousi and Conman Conyers something.
