Good topic David- Just curious what people think on a few things:
1) Who will the "deal" hurt more, Portune or Hartmann, and why?
2) Will Portune's commercials for Brinker & Davis put them over the top? Is it payback for Todd against Goering & DeWine for opposing the jail tax.
3) If Driehaus can't beat Chabot can anyone?
4) Who does Krikorian hurt more, Schmidt or Wulsin? Can he be the difference maker in this race?
5) Did Jim Raussen see the writing on the wall and get out at just the right time?
