Update:

        Joe and his family are now eight years and a phenomenal 82,000 miles into campaigning nationwide for the presidency in the past three elections.

        Current strategy:  The Schriners are currently focusing on an extensive Buckeye Back Road Tour of Ohio where they intend to stump in all 88 counties, twice.

        “We are trying to win Ohio,” Joe told the Morning Journal in Columbiana County.  “Wouldn’t that be the feel good story of Campaign 2008,” Ashtabula Star reporter Mark Todd responded to this intention.

        The Schriner family has recently been featured on ClevelandR17;s ABC News and Channel 19 News, Toledo’s Channel 11 News, Lima’s NBC and Fox News, Youngstown’s Fox News…

        The story has also run in most newspapers (big and small) across the state: Akron Beacon Journal, Salem News, Delphos News, Crescent News, etc., etc., etc…

        A recent excerpt from the Canton Repository, Canton’s largest newspaper:

        “Hillary? Rudy? Fuggetaboutem… Average Joe wants your vote.”
