Gubernatorial candidate Jim Petro is appealing to racist undertones and using liberal tactics of victimizing children to try to win the primary. In his commercial, it shows a small WHITE child playing. The voiceover talks about all the things Ken Blackwell WILL STEAL from your children if you elect him, including teachers and fire protection. Note, that Ken Blackwell is BLACK. Note the racist undertones: Another black guy is going to steal from the White folks. Note also how Jim Petro reveals who he REALLY is. Liberals have long used the tactics of painting conservative leaders as wanting to steal from children, as they did with Ronald Reagan, and also with Bush, in order to promote their own willingness to "defend the children." This is a tired canard, and one that is shameless, especially when you throw in the subtle hints of racist views of blacks as thieves. Shameless. But the content is ridiculous, especially when you consider Blackwell's wife is superintendent of Cincinnati Public schools.
Jim Petro is hitting the bottom of the barrel. Has he been consulting with Bob McEwen's camp? Stay tuned.
