OTTOVILLE — The
school board here handled
routine business to round out
the academic year Wednesday
night. However, before it
began its regular monthly
meeting, a room-full of par-
ents raised concerns over the
but “they know they can’t
afford to cut us that much,”
he said. However, in draw-
ing his forecast, he has to
do so on the best informa-
tion available. He called it a
“decent” forecast based on
facts and trends related to
revenue, expenses and cash
balances. The years farthest
off are of highest concerns as
state foundation payments are Nancy Spencer photos

Activities planned
include drilling holes and
attaching fasteners on
the decking/bracing.
If time allows, they
may also start to power
wash the deck.
Volunteers need to
bring electric drills, exten-
sion cords and battery-
operated drills if available.

Lori Fischer, who has a
son on the team, read a brief
statement indicating she is
concerned for the program’s
future and the coaching style
employed by its leadership.
Another resident informed
the board that not all parents
share her viewpoint, includ-
ing a former player who also
did not identify himself.
Board President Kevin
Landin told those in atten-
dance that spring sports is
scheduled for the June meet-
ing and informal conversa-
tions would be held between
now and then. Because the
issue was not on the agen-
da, nothing further was dis-
cussed.
Treasurer Bob Weber gave
a detailed overview of his
5-year forecast. He stressed
the state may or may not cut
all schools up to 30 percent
anticipated to drop from $2.2
million next year to $1.5 mil-
lion in 2014.
In general, public schools
across the region are facing
state cuts that cause a greater
burden for local tax dollars to
keep schools going. Vantage
Career Center, for example,
anticipates a $2.6 million def-
icit at the end of the five-year
period if its state funding is
cut 30 percent.
In other business, the
following motions were
approved:
• The list of 44 graduates
to receive diplomas at 1 p.m.
Sunday;
• Continued membership
in the Ohio High School
Athletic Association;
• Van drivers for towing
the band trailer to parades and
other events;

Senators want National
Guard troops on border
By LOLITA C. BALDOR
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — troops.
Homeland Security and
Pentagon officials are at log-
gerheads over a plan to send
National Guard troops to the
U.S.-Mexico border, even as
President Barack Obama is
pledging to bolster security
there.
The Guard stalemate has
festered for nearly a year,
and frustrated lawmakers are
demanding action to stem the
spread of violence and drug
trafficking that has spilled
across the border to their
states. The inaction raises
questions about whether the
White House is convinced the
federally funded deployment
is necessary, or whether bor-
der states will be forced to
bear the costs of dispatching
Guard troops on their own.
Speaking at the White
House Wednesday with
Mexican President Felipe
Calderon, Obama said the U.S.
is committed to standing with
Mexico against drug cartels.
“As your partner, we’ll
give you the support you need
to prevail,” he said, adding
that through increased law
enforcement on the U.S. side
of the border, “we’re putting
unprecedented pressure on
those who traffic in drugs,
guns and people.”
Fueling the discord over
sending the National Guard
to the border was the U.S.

Tax cut math doesn’t add up for some
By RICARDO ALONSO-
ZALDIVAR
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) —
Zach Hoffman was confident
his small business would
qualify for a new tax cut in
President Barack Obama’s
health care overhaul law.
But when he ran the num-
bers, Hoffman discovered that
his office furniture company
wouldn’t get any assistance
with the $79,200 it pays annu-
ally in premiums for its 24
employees. “It leaves you
with this feeling of a bait-
and-switch,” he said.
When the administration
unveiled the small business
tax credit earlier this week,
officials touted its “broad eli-
gibility” for companies with
fewer than 25 workers and
average annual wages under
$50,000 that provide health
coverage. Hoffman’s workers
earn an average of $35,000
a year, which makes it all
the more difficult to under-
stand why his company didn’t
qualify.
Lost in the fine print: The
credit drops off sharply once
a company gets above 10
workers and $25,000 average
annual wages.
It’s an example of how the
early provisions of the health
care law can create winners
and losers among groups
NKorea crisis looms as Clinton heads to Asia
By MATTHEW LEE
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — world financial woes and
Secretary of State Hillary
Rodham Clinton is embark-
ing on a three-nation tour of
Asia whose centerpiece — a
new round of U.S.-China stra-
tegic and economic talks — is
likely to be overshadowed by
a crisis with North Korea,
possible new sanctions on
Iran and the debate over U.S.
military bases in Japan.
There have been striking
new developments on those
three security fronts ahead of
Clinton’s departure for her fifth
journey to Asia as America’s
top diplomat, particularly the
release of a report blaming
North Korea for sinking a
South Korean warship. And,
at each stop along her way
— Japan, China and South
Korea — these tough foreign
policy problems are expected
to draw the spotlight.
After meetings in Tokyo
and a good-will visit to the
World Expo in Shanghai on
Friday and Saturday, Clinton
will join Treasury Secretary
Timothy Geithner in Beijing
for two days of talks with
Chinese leaders.
Those talks are intended
to focus on improving coop-
which has included federal
authorization for deploying
up to 17,000 National Guard
Those costs, however, are
likely to be borne by oil giant
BP PLC, which leased the off-
shore drilling rig Deepwater
Horizon that exploded off the
Louisiana coast April 20, kill-
ing 11 and releasing a huge,
continuing oil spill.
The oil spill notwithstand-
ing, border state lawmakers
say they need help too.
“If you’ll indulge me,
we think we have another
crisis on the border,” Sen.
John McCain, R-Ariz., told
Homeland Security Secretary
Janet Napolitano at a hearing
this week. “I want to know
about whether you’re going to
send the Guard to the border
or not.”
When she tried to explain
other DHS improvements
along the border, McCain cut
her off.
“People’s homes are being
violated, and their families
can’t take kids to the bus
stop,” the senator fumed. “And
you are very familiar with the
issue, because you yourself
asked for the Guard to go to
the border back in 2006.”
Napolitano, a former
Arizona governor, responded
that the request involves the
White House as well as the
Pentagon and the Homeland
Security Department, and is
still in the interagency pro-
cess. While she said she
would like the decision to be
lawmakers intended to help
— people with health prob-
lems, families with young
adult children and small busi-
nesses. Because of the law’s
complexity, not everyone in a
broadly similar situation will
benefit.
Consider small businesses:
“The idea here is to target
the credits to a relatively
low number of firms, those
who are low-wage and really
quite small,” said economist
Linda Blumberg of the Urban
Institute public policy center.
On paper, the credit seems
to be available to companies
with fewer than 25 workers
and average wages of $50,000.
But in practice, a complicated
formula that combines the
two numbers works against
companies that have more
than 10 workers and $25,000
in average wages, Blumberg
said.
“You can get zero even if
you are not hitting the max on
both pieces,” Blumberg said.
Hoffman used an online
calculator to figure his com-
pany’s eligibility. At least
three are available: from the
House Energy and Commerce
Committee, which helped
write the legislation; from
the progressive Center for
American Progress; and from
the National Federation of
Independent Business, which
is seeking to overturn the law
eration between the two eco-
nomic giants to cement the
U.S. economic recovery, ease
combat issues like climate
change and terrorism.
Instead, the release of the
report blaming North Korea
for the March 26 sinking of
the South Korean warship
Cheonan and negotiations on
a new U.N. Security Council
resolution imposing fresh
sanctions on Iran over its
suspect nuclear program are
expected to take center stage
at Monday and Tuesday’s
talks in the Chinese capital.
The White House said late
Wednesday that the ship sink-
ing was an “act of aggression”
that is “one more instance of
North Korea’s unacceptable
behavior and defiance of inter-
national law.” It called it “a
challenge to international peace
and security and ... a violation
of Armistice Agreement” that
ended the Korean War.
The State Department said
evidence ruled out any alter-
native explanation and the
United States was “already
working very closely with
our ally (South Korea) and
consulting with our partners
regarding appropriate steps.”
In response to the report,
North Korea warned it will

made as soon as possible, she
added she could not say when
she would have an answer.
“We don’t have a resolu-
tion on that yet,” Air Force
Gen. Gene Renuart said in an
interview with The Associated
Press. Renuart, who headed the
U.S. Northern Command until
his retirement Wednesday
after 39 years of service,
added that while money is a
point of contention, the greater
disagreement centers on what
missions the National Guard
would perform.
He said the discussion
between the Defense and
Homeland Security depart-
ments continues, and some of
the requests “have evolved a
bit in this interim period.” He
did not provide details.
First floated last June, the
idea was to use 1,500 Guard
troops temporarily to supple-
ment border patrol agents.
The Pentagon and Homeland
Security drafted a $225 mil-
lion plan, but disagreed over
who would pay for it and how
the troops would be utilized.
Pentagon officials, wor-
ried about perceptions that
the U.S. was militarizing the
border, argued that the Guard
could only be used for par-
ticular duties. Military leaders
said they did not want Guard
troops to screen vehicles at
border points or perform any
law enforcement duties, and
said the program should be
temporary and not tied to any
existing program that could
get extended.
in federal court. All produced
the same result.
“I think (the administra-
tion’s) intentions are good,
but the numbers and applica-
tions don’t come out to what
they intend,” said Hoffman,
part owner of Wiley Office
Furniture, a third-generation
family business in Springfield,
Ill.
The Treasury Department,
which administers the new
credit, did not dispute the cal-
culations.
“The small-business tax
credit was designed to provide
the greatest benefit to employ-
ers that currently have the
hardest time providing health
insurance for their workers
— small, low-wage firms,”
said Michael Mundaca, assis-
tant secretary for tax policy.
“Small employers face higher
premiums and higher admin-
istrative costs than large firms
and in many cases cannot
afford to provide coverage.”
Small business owners are
a pivotal constituency in the
fall congressional elections,
and Democrats are battling to
win them over. Major benefits
of the health care law — com-
petitive insurance markets,
more stable premiums and a
ban on denying coverage to
those in poor health — don’t
take effect until 2014. But the
health care credit is available
starting this year.
wage “all-out war” if there
is retaliation against it over
the sinking, which killed
46 sailors. The North’s
Korean Central News
Agency quoted a spokesman
from the National Defense
Commission as rejecting the
findings as a “fabrication.” It
said Pyongyang would react
to any punishment or sanc-
tions with warfare.
Earlier, U.S. officials
sought to minimize the dis-
tractive impact the sinking is
expected to have on the sec-
ond round of the so-called
Strategic and Economic
Dialogue with China. But
with the Chinese holding the
most leverage over reclusive
North Korea, its support for
any international response to
Pyongyang will be critical to
its success.
Kurt Campbell, the top U.S.
diplomat for Asia, acknowl-
edged that a main reason for
Clinton’s trip “will be to have
the closest possible consulta-
tion with Japan, China and
South Korea on the next phase”
of the North Korean situation.
He said it would be prime
agenda item in Clinton’s talks
with Chinese President Hu
Jintao, Foreign Minister Yang
Jiechi and State Councilor Dai
Bingguo.

Jays set up showdown with Miller City in districts

By JIM METCALFE
The Delphos Herald
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
ELIDA — Never say die.
That was the theme of the
St. John’s 3-2 comeback win
over Leipsic on an increas-
ingly pleasant Wednesday
afternoon at Elida’s Ed Sandy
Memorial Field.
In the nightcap, Miller City
senior ace Rusty Lammers
pitched a 1-hitter to oust
Jefferson 5-0.
That will set up a St.
John’s/Miller City showdown
in the Division IV district
finals Friday. Due to gradu-
ation at Miller City, the time
has been changed to 4 p.m.
“Tournament time is find-
ing ways to win and advance.
Our bats, which have been
hot, weren’t today,” Jays
coach Dan Metzger said. “We
had to find ways to score runs
and we played a little small-
ball. You just have to keep
at it. Our pitching — Joel

semifinal victory. 6 1/3 innings, 8 hits, 3 runs,
that third baseman Trevor
Schroeder made a diving stab
to keep on the infield; likely
unable to throw out the batter,
instead he caught C. Pohlman
too far off second base for the
third out.
The Vikings went up 2-1
in the fifth. With one out —
a pickoff of Nate Schey by
C. Pohlman — back-to-back
free passes (Brady Schroeder
and Trevor Schroeder) and a
2-out infield hit by Mangas
loaded the bases. A wild
pitch allowed B. Schroeder to
touch the dish but Jay Maag
lined out to second baseman
Ryan Densel to leave two
Vikings on.
The Jays garnered a 1-out
walk to Calvelage in the
home half and a stolen base.
One out later, Leininger was
intentionally passed but C.
Pohlman’s hard liner was
right at Trevor Schroeder.
The Vikings left a runner
on in the sixth.
In the seventh, the Jays
turned an unusual inning-
ending twin-killing to get out
of trouble. With one down,

Musketeers 13-9
By FRANK GERMAN
The Delphos Herald
fjohngerman@gmail.com
COLDWATER — The
first round of the Coldwater
Division IV District baseball
tourney was fought long and
hard by Parkway and Fort
Jennings.
Parkway outslugged Fort
Jennings 13-9 in a game that
took over 2 hours
and 20 minutes.
Parkway will advance
to the finals versus
Crestview at 7 p.m.
Friday.
Fort Jennings did
the big damage first.
They had a 4-run
second inning right after
Parkway started the scoring
off first with a single run in
the first. The Musketeers’
Adam Osting started off the
second reaching on a 2-base
error. Jared Calvelage drew
a walk; with Cody Warnecke
at the plate, Osting got picked
off second. Warnecke walked
followed by a single by
Austin Norbeck in loading the
bases. Trevor Von Sossan hit
a short single, scoring a run
and keeping the bases loaded.
Drew Mesker’s single scored
two; he reached second on the
throw home. Brad Trentman
was batting with runners on
second & third when a wild
pitch allowed Von Sossan to
score from third. Trentman
then bounced out to end the
inning with Fort Jennings
leading 4-1.
“I think we got so fired
up from scoring the four runs
that it is almost detrimental.
You have to come back and
play the defensive side of the
game. I think we got a little
excited earning some errors
but Parkway did hit the ball
after the three errors,” Fort
Jennings coach Jeff Swick
relayed.
Parkway came right back
in the next half inning, scoring
five runs. Fort Jennings made
three errors in a row after
striking out the first batter,
scoring one run. Parkway’s
Taylor Bates hit a single, scor-
ing a run and leaving runners
on second and third. Grant
Ripley’s single scored two
more and he made it to sec-
ond on the throw home. Jake
Jackson’s double brought
home Ripley for the fifth run
of the inning and a 6-4 lead.
The Panthers tacked on
bases loaded to bring in one
run. Dylan Baker was hit by
a pitch, bringing in run No.
2 of the inning. After an out,
Grant Gray singled to bring
in run three. Chris Brazle then
doubled to plate runs 4 and 5
and leaving Parkway up 13-5.
“This team is a team that
has never given up all year
long. We have won games in
the seventh and late innings
and that is just pure
leadership and guts.
They were just a gap
shot away from the
10-run rule but our kids
came right back out after
them,” Swick added.
The Musketeers,
down by eight runs
going into the top of the sixth
inning, showed what they were
made of in fighting back and
not giving up. Tyler Good
started things off with a double
and Von Sossan moved him
to third on a ground-out to the
shortstop. Mesker hit a double
in scoring Good; Trentman was
struck by a pitch. Horstman hit
a single with two on, scor-
ing Mesker for run No. 2.
An out later, Calvelage drew
a walk and loaded bases for
Warnecke. His single scored
the third and fourth runs of the
inning. The next batter popped
out to end the inning but now
the Musketeers were only
down by four.
They could not muster any
more as the season came to
an end.
“That both teams really
played their hearts out today
I believe. The pitching was
sound but the hitting was bet-
ter with some key hits at the
right time. You have to give
credit to Fort Jennings; they
just kept punching back and
both teams played as hard as
they could today,” Parkway
Coach Mike Schumm com-
mented.
Fort Jennings ends its sea-
son with a record of 13-10
overall and 4-3 in the Putnam
County League.
Parkway improves its mark
to 14-12.

That is, until the last of
the seventh. Trailing 2-1
entering their last regulation
at-bat, Nate Webb led off
with a double to the fence
in right field. Curtis Geise
sacrificed him over. On the
sequence, a throwing error to
first was made, hitting Geise;
this allow a hustling Webb to
slide into home with the tying
run and put Geise at second,
causing Viking coach Darren
Henry to protest.
“I was told by the umpire
that he had one foot inside the
first-base-line and one foot
outside of it. I disagreed,” he
explained.
Be that as it may, the game
went on. Tanner Calvelage
bunted Geise to third, from
where he scored as Tyler
Bergfeld hit a ball to deep

fielder Derek Mangas made
a superb effort to haul in but
could not for the walk-off
single to push the Jays on in
the tournament.
It began as a pitchers’ duel
between Schroeder and Blue
Jay senior starter Pohlman (5
IPs; 3 hits, 2 earned runs, 4
bases-on-balls, 2 strikeouts).
Both teams had chances in
the first inning.
The Vikings (17-9) left
two runners on base in the
first but the Jays did them one
“better” by leaving the sacks
juiced.
Bergfeld legged out an
infield nibbler 20 feet from
the dish with one out and
stole second an out later.
Chris Pohlman (2-for-2)
laced a shot up the middle to
put runners on the corners. J.
Pohlman walked to load them
up but Mitchell MacLennan
was called out for runner’s
interference on a foul pop for
the third out.
The Purple and Gold went
up 1-0 in the third: a 1-out
single by Trevor Schroeder,
a sacrifice bunt by Travis
Schroeder and an oppo-
site-way single to left by
Mangas.
The Jays retaliated imme-
diately. Calvelage singled to
lead it off but was picked off
base. An out later, Jordan
Leininger legged out an
infield hit past the pitcher
and took second on a throw-
ing error on the play. He
scored as C. Pohlman ripped
a double to the fence in cen-
ter. However, the Jays failed
to take further advantage.

NEW YORK — Jason Bartlett hit a
leadoff homer for Tampa Bay and the
Rays held on for a 10-6 victory over
New York on Wednesday night in the
opener of a 2-game series between
baseball’s top two teams.
Evan Longoria had three hits and
two RBIs, sending the AL East leaders
to their fifth straight win. Tampa Bay
stole six bases against starting pitcher
A.J. Burnett — four in a 4-run fourth
inning — and improved to 29-11, the
best record for a big-league team after
40 games since Boston had the same
mark in 2002.
Trailing 10-2 going into the ninth,
New York scored four times with
two outs against Andy Sonnanstine.
Joaquin Benoit struck out Juan Miranda
with two on.
Handed a 6-run lead by the fourth
inning, rookie Wade Davis (4-3) held
the Yankees in check. Alex Rodriguez
BASEBALL CAPSULES
Cano had four hits for New York (25-
15), which has dropped 7-of-11 since a
6-game winning streak.
Red Sox 3, Twins 2
BOSTON — Clay Buchholz gave
Boston’s struggling rotation a lift and
David Ortiz hit a 2-run homer for the
Red Sox.
Buchholz (5-3) allowed two runs
and five hits in 8-plus innings five
days after giving up one run and three
hits in 6 1/3 innings in a 7-2 win at
Detroit. He struck out seven, walked
one and faced only four batters over
the minimum.
The Red Sox went ahead in the
fourth on Ortiz’s 2-run homer after a
single by Victor Martinez. The umpires
first ruled that the high drive to left cen-
ter didn’t clear the red home-run line
but reviewed it and awarded a homer
to Ortiz, his eighth of the year and
fourth in six games.
Boston made it 3-1 in the sixth
after Scott Baker (4-4) retired the first
then singled and Bill Hall singled in
Beltre.
Royals 8, Indians 4
CLEVELAND — Yuniesky
Betancourt hit a 3-run double off closer
Kerry Wood in Kansas City’s 5-run
ninth inning.
Wood (0-2) tossed his glove into
the stands as he walked off the field
to a chorus of boos, after allowing four
hits and five runs while getting only one
out in 30 pitches.
Billy Butler tied the score with an
RBI double off Wood. Mitch Maier
later drew a bases-loaded walk to put
Kansas City ahead and Betancourt
followed with his drive over the head of
centerfielder Trevor Crowe.
Bruce Chen (1-0) pitched two score-
less innings for his first win since Aug. 6.
Wood opened the season on the
DL with a strained muscle in his upper
back and was activated May 7.
Angels 3, White Sox 2
CHICAGO — Torii Hunter hit a
pitched 7 2/3 strong innings to lead
Los Angeles.
Hunter hit his third home run in
three games and Saunders (3-5)
allowed just one run and four hits to
help the Angels.
Saunders struck out four and
walked two.
Fernando Rodney got one out in
the eighth and Brian Fuentes survived
a shaky performance in the ninth for his
fifth save in seven opportunities.
Paul Konerko led off the ninth with
a home run for Chicago; A.J. Pierzynski
singled with one out. Omar Vizquel ran
for him and advanced to second on a
passed ball with two outs. However,
Fuentes finally recovered to strike out
Alexei Ramirez to end the game.
The White Sox wasted another
strong outing from John Danks (3-3),
who allowed three runs, two earned,
and three hits. He struck out eight and
walked two.

Lakers hold off DIVISION II DISTRICT

Suns, take 2-game GIRLSFIELD
TRACK AND

West finals lead

By GREG BEACHAM
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — For a
few minutes in the third quar-
ter, the Suns actually got
rolling. Grant Hill and Jason
Richardson scored in a flur-
ry of jumpers and Phoenix
forced enough turnovers and
bad shots by the Lakers to tie
Pony League
Game 2 heading to the fourth.
Coach Alvin Gentry will
cling to those minutes over
Deann Heiing photo the next three days; not much
else in the first two games of
Ross Thompson of the Delphos Blues slides safely into the Western Conference finals
third base Wednesday night at Stadium Park. After rain- suggested Phoenix can hang
outs postponed Pony League games this week, the Blues with Kobe Bryant’s defending
had to rally from a 3-0 deficit to down Glandorf 7-3. The NBA champions.
Blues will take on Kalida today, while the Delphos Reds Pau Gasol scored 14 of his
29 points in the fourth quarter,
will play makeup games today and Friday. Bryant had 21 points and 13
assists, and the Lakers roared
points and 11 rebounds for
the Lakers, who moved within
striking distance of a tanta-
lizing NBA finals showdown
with the Boston Celtics, who
lead Orlando 2-0 in the East.
For the second straight game,
the chants rained down from
the Staples Center crowd in
the final minutes: “We want
Boston!”
Bryant’s streak of six straight
30-point games ended, yet he
excelled as a creator. He set
up Gasol for two tough bas-
kets in the final minutes, with
Gasol scoring with a flourish
and drawing a foul each time.
“We’re shooting the ball
very well, moving the ball
really, really well,” Gasol said.
“Our bench is playing at a high
level, and we’re all stepping
up.”

117,300 beef farms with more
than 5.82 million head of
cattle. Receipts from the sale
of cattle in these four states
topped $17.1 billion in 2007.

Politicians still in
shock after primary
By LIZ SIDOTI
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Dazed
and confused. The biggest
primary night of the season
left the two parties struggling
Wednesday to figure out their
next steps in an increasingly
volatile election year.
House Republicans
tried to explain their costly
defeat in a special election
in Pennsylvania, a con-
test they had hoped would
launch them toward big gains
in November’s midterm
elections. President Barack
Obama failed for a fifth time
to push Democratic choices
to victory, a troubling sign for
the White House.
Despite the White House
support, Sen. Blanche Lincoln
was forced into a runoff with
union-backed Lt. Gov. Bill
Halter in Arkansas and is
clinging to her political life.
Arlen Specter saw his long
Senate career end altogether
with Joe Sestak’s nomination
in Pennsylvania.
Tea party activists scored
a big victory in Kentucky,
rejecting Senate Minority
Leader Mitch McConnell’s
hand-picked GOP nominee
— Trey Grayson — for the
state’s other Senate seat in
favor of political upstart Rand
Paul.
Answers to Wednesday’s questions:
By law, information collected in a U.S. census remains
confidential for 72 years — a normal lifespan.
The unusual state gem of Washington is petrified wood.
Today’s questions:
How did San Francisco policemen save important city
records from the devastating fires sparked by the 1906
earthquake?
Who was Florence Nightingale Graham?
Answers in Friday’s Herald.
Today’s words:
Nyctalopia: night blindness
Ylespil: hedgehog
In several states, voters
flocked to self-described out-
siders at a time when support
for Congress is low, anger at
Washington high and backing
for Obama divided.
However, the themes that
surfaced in Tuesday’s dispa-
rate primaries may tell little
about the likely outcomes of
upcoming primaries in other
states, much less how the
general election in some five
months will play out. More
clear is that this is shaping up
to be a raucous campaign sea-
son, with colliding variables
and a host of unknowns.
While public
tion focused on the Senate
atten-
races, party leaders eyed the
Pennsylvania House result.
Rep. Eric Cantor, the No. 2
House Republican, predicted
a GOP takeover of the House
this fall, although he said the
loss in Pennsylvania was “evi-
dence of the fact that we have
a lot of work to do and we
can’t get ahead of ourselves.”
Countered Tim Kaine, the
Democratic Party chairman:
“The party’s failure to take
a seat also shows that while
conventional wisdom holds
that this cycle will be tough
for Democrats, the final chap-
ter on this year’s elections is
far from written.”
A Republican victory for
that Pennsylvania House seat
would have advanced the par-
ty’s claims that major gains are
certain this fall, and a takeover
of the House is possible — a
narrative officials had hoped
to reinforce this Saturday in
a special election to fill out
the term of former Rep. Neil
Abercrombie of Hawaii.
In Hawaii, Republican
Charles Djou runs ahead in
the polls while two Democrats
split a preponderance of their
party’s vote. Despite efforts at
diplomacy, neither former Rep.
Ed Case nor Colleen Hanabusa
has agreed to withdraw, and
the Democratic Congressional
Campaign Committee recent-
ly announced it was halting its
activity in the race after spend-
ing more than $300,000.
But what does it all mean?
It’s an unpredictable politi-
cal environment in which
Republicans will seek to
take control of Congress this
fall and Democrats will try
to curtail losses. Some GOP
gains are expected because
Obama’s party is the one in
power at a time when the
economy continues to sput-
ter and joblessness persists.
Those economic issues are
voters’ top concerns.
“The message clearly is
that they’re tired of business as
usual in Washington, regard-
less of party. ... The people
want new faces and new fresh
ideas,” Massachusetts Sen.
Scott Brown, who rode a wave
of voter anger to office in
January, said in an interview.
Kaine deflected questions
about whether Obama’s politi-
cal influence was waning, say-
ing that after the primaries are
over in states “that’s when
you’ll see the president going
in.” He ignored the fact that
over the past seven months
Democratic candidates Obama
campaigned for lost guber-
natorial races in Virginia and
New Jersey, fell to Brown in
Massachusetts, lost the Senate
primary in Pennsylvania and
ended up in an Arkansas run-
off.

Ronald McDonald touts reading to students
Ronald McDonald dropped by St. John’s Elementary Wednesday morning to share
“Book Time” with the children. He educated them on the crucial role reading plays
in the learning process. “Books are our friends but they can’t help us if we don’t read
them,” Ronald said. “So it’s important to set aside some time every day for Book
Time.”
