Average Joe Buckeye Blitz cont.<\/strong><\/em> I am in Bluffton, Ohio today where I have cloistered myself in the Bluffton College Library and am e-mailing letters to the editor of every Ohio newspaper I can in support of, that’s right: my campaign.

I am one…” Today I also got a call from a woman temporarily working in Ontario, Canada, who is a resident of Vermont. She said she was writing my name in on an absentee ballot and needed to know my vice-presidential candidate’s name for this particular form. I told her it was: Barb Marlinski<\/strong>, an “average Jane,” if you will, from Lakewood, New York. Barb, who is a Catholic, puts her faith first in her life. In addition, she is on the same page with us on all the issues. She is a wife, mother and a piano teacher.
