"I think there's some issues that I'd like to wait until I'm a senator and deal with them in a

bipartisan way," he said. - This is exactly the same shit Ryan is trying to pull in interviews. These douche nozzles know that if they answer actual questions they're fucked.

Josh Mandel, Sherrod Brown spar at meeting for Plain Dealer endorsement

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- In their first Northeast Ohio face-off, U.S. Senate candidates Sherrod Brown and Josh Mandel ripped into each other, questioning each other's truthfulness during an endorsement interview Friday at The Plain Dealer offices.

Brown, the Democratic incumbent from Avon, repeatedly called out his Republican opponent for making statements that fact-checkers have found to be false and then repeating those statements after they were exposed.

He then accused Mandel of telling even more falsehoods during their 70-minute interview and questioned whether Mandel knows when he's not telling the truth.

"This is serious business. People don't run for the Senate and act like you do," said Brown, 59. "These are serious issues, these aren't political games to go from one office to another to another and reach your ambitions, but not fight for what matters to people in this state."

You don't go into negotiations with Congress without some priorities, plans, objectives, some idea of what you'll give and what you won't give, organizing principles and if they don''t have anything like that that they can tell us, that's even worse!

He'll do exactly what AFP, ALEC, and The Heritage Foundation clowns tell him to do.

And Ohioans know that Brown backed the auto bail-out.

Mandel is an unknown quantity still, no one seems to know where he stands on anything, or what he is actually for.

All they got is negative ads, non-stop.
