Please Veto For Me

The daily “Say What” quotation on Slate’s Doonesbury comic page is from Tom Ganley, a congressional candidate in Ohio [UPDATE: According a local paper in Akron, this quotation has beenĀ mis-attributedĀ to Ganley]:

“Let’s take Betty Sutton out of the House and send her back to the kitchen.”

I went to his web site and couldn’t help noticing the banner near the bottom. Good people of Akron, would you vote for a guy who can’t even get your city spelled correctly on his front page? I’m as guilty of misspellings as anyone, but first of all, doesn’t he have a staff to check this kind of thing… on his single most important web face to the public… and additionally, what spell checker thought that “Arkon” was a valid word? Yep, sure enough, it got a red squiggly when I typed it.
