When Nov. 7 rolls around, Ohioans should “watch this election like a hawk,” Sen. Hillary Clinton said at a Columbus conference yesterday.
“Don’t let them pull anything over your eyes again,” Clinton said, apparently referring to voting and vote-counting disputes that erupted in Ohio in the 2004 presidential election.
Clinton, a Democratic senator from New York, wife of the former president and a potential presidential candidate herself in 2008, wowed a standing-room-only crowd at the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now convention in Ohio State University’s Mershon Auditorium.
Time after time, Clinton’s remarks were drowned out by applause and cheers from the 2,700 members of the national organization representing low- and moderate-income families on social-justice issues.
Clinton hit on a variety of hot-button issues: education, immigration and the Bush administration’s initially sluggish response to the Hurricane Katrina disaster along the Gulf Coast.

She was at Cup o’ Joe on 3rd yesterday, she was talking to one of my park friends and petting their dog.
Ha! What time? I was walking by there on my way home for lunch and back to work around 1-2-ish. Would have been pretty surreal to have walked by then. :shock:
Maybe she went to Katzinger’s as well?
I have heard that Bill has been there.
