“Sir, yes sir”

Democratic Party super delegates are a popular bunch these days, taking calls from the Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama campaigns as the two candidates battle for the party nomination.

Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown is one of those guys. He said he’s not going to announce who he supports until Ohio voters have a chance to weigh in on March 4. But that doesn’t keep the candidates from trying.

Not long ago Brown was at home with his wife, Connie Schultz, when the phone rang. As Brown tells it, he picked up the phone and “the guy says, ‘Senator Brown, President Clinton would like to speak to you.” Next thing he knew Clinton was on the line saying, “Sherrod.”

Without thinking, Brown “stood up and said, ‘Mr. President.’”

At that, Brown’s wife looked at him and remarked, “He can’t see you.”

First of all, Bill Clinton is not Mr. President. Second of all, who Sherrod Brown is a has-been who has managed to stay alive in the Ohio politics. He won’t get re-elected because I am going to run against him. I love been in my 40’s. We’re finally cleaning house of the same old political guard. Go Obama and Huckabee. Leave the senators in the dust, and the media dumbfounded.

Please delete T’s comment. It’s obscene.

Remember Ohio if they support the Clintons than vote them out the next election.

“T”, your insightful comments are inspiring. Ha. Sherrod Brown is an excellent senator and Ohio is lucky to have him as a representative.
