OCT. 27: The First Two -- Really?
Perhaps hoping
to mimic the suspenseful aspects of an Alfred Hitchcock film or a Thomas
Harris novel, an ultra-conservative group has been issuing press
releases announcing its endorsements for Cincinnati City Council one at a
time.
First, the
Coalition Opposed to Additional Spending and Taxes (COAST) announced
Oct. 24 that it endorsed independent Christopher Smitherman for City
Council. No surprise there: COAST is almost single-handedly responsible
for reviving Smitherman's political prospects after voters dumped him
following a single council term in 2003-05.
Today, COAST
announced its second endorsement: Preacher and exorcist turned
politician Charlie Winburn, an ex-Democrat who became a Republican in
the 1980s.
