With the Enquirer’s Politics Extra “blog” putting up six posts on Roxanne Qualls returning to political life in the last fours days even I am starting to worry about there being a liberal bias in the media. I guess it’s good to see that veteran Democrats are returning to active duty in Southern Ohio now that the waters have become more inviting. Better late then never.

Also, Bill Sloat has an interesting post on the fundraiser being hosted by Vernal G. (Skip) Riffe III for newbie Democrat Steve Black. It would seem that like the Phoenix, the ghost of Vern Riffe has flown out of the ashes on wings of gold. Given the bizzaro power structures that make up the eastern portions of the fighting 2nd this is an interesting piece to add to the puzzle that is Stephen L. Black.

I will give one friendly warning to candidate Black. Scioto county is Jim Parker country. You’d better start knocking on a hell of a lot of doors if you want to have a chance against the Parkinator.
