Boy, you come down pretty hard and swift on Cimperman raising so much money from "corporate interests" and include the names and amounts from each individual.
Yet, your note at the end shows how Kucinich actually outdrew Cimperman in the end -- but his funds DIDN'T come from corporate interests. Yay, Dennis!
Wait a minute...
Where are the names and amounts for Dennis's benefactors? Surely, Sean Penn, Shirley McClain, and Larry Flynt are all from the 10th District. No? Well at least they're from Northeast Ohio in general. They are not? How about SOMEWHERE in the entire state of Ohio? Fat chance.
Why didn't you mention that the money raised by "Dennis!" -- 97% of it -- came from OUTSIDE of Ohio?? What interests do these hollywood celebrities have with the 10th district?
Selective reporting, at its best.
As a resident of the 13th ward in Downtown Cleveland -- and as somebody who is just a regular guy...not a developer, not a VIP, not a member of the upper class...I can say whole-heartedly that Joe Cimperman has been there for his residents. I'm not saying that Dennis hasn't. I wouldn't know, as I'm not a member of the 10th district. But it irks me to see people assume that just becasue Joe Cimperman has brought great things to our city, increased jobs, and have paved the way for better things to come (i.e. Euclid Corridor) -- he has been "bought out" by corporate interests.
That's some very simplistic thinking.
Tisk, tisk, indeed.
