You'd think George Soros would get it by now. His continued effort to buy Ohio's elections can only be defined as a miserable failure. The resounding defeat of State Issues 2, 3, 4 & 5 marks his third multi-million dollar wipe out at the Ohio ballot box. So leave us alone already!
- Soros and his partner-in-fraud Peter Lewis (head of Ohio's Progressive Auto Insurance company) dumped more than a half-million dollars into a 2002 Ohio ballot initiative to let drug offenders off the hook. It got crushed by a two-to-one margin.
- In 2004, Soros tried to buy the White House for John Kerry by funneling his personal fortune directly into so-called '527' groups such as ACT and MoveOn, which spent millions of dollars engaging in deceptive and illegal campaign tactics in Ohio and other battleground states. They lost Ohio and, therefore, the presidency.
- On Tuesday, four Ohio ballot issues backed heavily by Soros-funded activist groups went down in flames. Contrary to claims that Soros had nothing to do with the campaign, his financial ties to the issues cannot be denied. Soros is a top contributor to MoveOn PAC (which raised nationwide contributions for the campaign), People for the American Way (which funded a third of the campaign's budget), and Common Cause (which led the campaign for these issues both here in Ohio and in California).
Memo to Mr. Soros: Three strikes and you're out! It's time to MoveOn.
