FOX NEWS Declares OH-3 "Potential Upset" for Mike Turner
Perhaps Fox News is fair and balanced. This weekend, the ever-Republican Fox declared OH-3 a "potential upset" in the Congressional Race.
On their website, Fox says: Key Races - Midwest: OH 3 (Potential for upset): Mike Turner (R) has a rematch with his 2004 opponent, Jane Mitakides (D). The District is comprised of much of urban Dayton which helps with Obama at the top of the ticket. Plus absentee ballots heavily favor Democrats.

This is what we knew all along, and event conservative Fox has to agree, Things aren’t looking good for Congressman Mike Turner. With only eight days to go in this landmark election season, it looks like Jane Mitakides (www.Jane08.com) will come out on top!
It's no surprise Mike Turner could lose his seat this year. He's done a terrible job, and OH-3 doesn't need another two years of his ineffectiveness, in addition to his abrasiveness and arrogance.
I recently met his opponent, Jane Mitakides, and heard her speak. She is articulate, passionate, and genuinely cares about OH-3. She has also attracted the attention of Fox and the Dayton Daily News, both saying she could unseat Turner. It is no surprise that even the conservative media outlets recognize the Democratic voting trends of OH-3.
To Congressman Mike Turner, take this opportunity to get a head start packing up your office, and don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
