Karl Rove met with Jeff Simpson and other area Republicans before the Lincoln Day Dinner on Jan. 21.

“Its very exciting to meet Rove and have the opportunity to sit down with him,” said Simpson, chairman of one Lucas County Republican Party faction. “This is the fun stuff, the gravy. This is why we get involved, why we go out and support candidates.”

“Mr. Stainbrook said he has raised nearly $50,000 in cash and in-kind contributions since taking the party reins last year.”

Noe, a top fund-raiser for the Bush campaign, had an agenda for his meeting with Mr. Kaczala, who then was the Lucas County auditor and the county government's only Republican officeholder:

There is something wrong with someone who writes to clarify the record, has the record rewritten on behalf of the “President of the Toledo Board of Education”. That sums up what Steven Steel tries to do in a response from a community member trying to clarify some misconceptions.

Carty continued to make news in all the wrong way when he publicly sparred with Brian Mcmahon who were trying to get an intermodal at the Toledo airport. And publicly sparring with the backers of Take Back Toledo as well as leading the effort to remove Jim Hartung from the Port Authority.

This in by e-mail:
Tomorrow the LCRP Central Committee will vote on our party chairman. Before that
vote happens there are some things you need to know about one of the candidates
for that office. Jon Stainbrook is what many would call a wolf in sheeps clothing.
I know many of you have received his letters and newsletters and it all sounds great

This just in via e-mail from a group calling themselves "Concerned Republican Stain Remover"

One year ago City Council passed an "emergency" ordinance setting aside $270,000 for the development of townhouses on Door at Smead. A check today of the property will show nothing has been done. I was curious about the situation and wrote to Wilma Brown the Councilperson for that district. What follows is an example of the arrogance citizens face each day from the current administration.
