Grover Norquist caught on tape dissing Ohio GOP governor
http://www.dailykos.com/

A mole inside a meeting of Republicans Abroad has a voice recording of Grover Norquist sweating Bushs chances in Ohio.
Asked by meeting participants which battleground state was most important, Grover replies with no hesitation:

"We HAVE to hold OHIO. We have an idiot, stupid, corrupt, dumb rotten republican Governor in that State... who has been busy looting the state, raising taxes, lying to the gun owners.
Ohio is the only state that in the nation that has lost jobs and isn't recovering because he's been beating the economy to death in the state. But he's not on the ballot, George Bush is on the state. It's not helpful, he should be taken out and horsewhipped."

3. He's right, though.
Governor's Split With Conservatives Might Harm Bush


But Governor Taft, 62, now finds himself at odds with conservatives, unpopular with voters and sitting atop a party organization that is riven by feuds and tarnished by scandal. The disarray is so great, Democrats contend, that it could hurt President Bush's ability to win Ohio, a pivotal state for the Republicans. "We will run against Bush and Taft," said Susan Gwinn, chairwoman of the Athens County Democratic Party. "Taft has been a disaster for Ohio. His approval rating is so low, it's unbelievable. We'll mention Taft every chance we can."


Taft is poison. And I'm thrilled to see Grover the Terrorist chowing down on him.
