Ohioans For Concealed Carry PAC has been inundated with questions about its endorsement of Rep. Daniel Sferra (D) for the 64th District.

By Chad D. Baus Since the Democrat party has based its entire hate-Bush campaign on Michael Moore conspiracy theories, I would like to offer up one more theory for them to chew on: The Clintonistas John Kerry hired in September to rescue his campaign want Hillary to run in '08, and they are using the gun issue to sabotage John Kerry in swing states.

It takes sometimes years to have a relationship with a land owner for hunting access. Because of his...
