http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_CLINTON_OHIO_... Former President Bill Clinton urged Democrats on Saturday to go to the polls and save the jobs of Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland and endangered House members in a state critical for the 2012 presidential election.
Clinton told a crowd that packed a 1,700-seat banquet hall near Youngstown that no one should accept GOP proposals on spending and the budget.
"It's a joke, it's not true," he said, citing a litany of budget statistics dating back decades. "Their deal sounds good but it doesn't work. ... Our ideas work better than theirs."(snip)
"You're doing very well and you're fixing to do better," Clinton said. "I'd keep my governor, if I were you."
