GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney's new running mate received a warm welcome at a rally on Thursday.

Nearly 2,000 people turned out at Walsh University on Thursday to get a glimpse of the 42-year-old congressman and hear first-hand about his ideas and political philosophy. Ryan is on his second day of visits to small Ohio colleges. He made a campaign stop Wednesday at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio in solidly Republican Butler County.

Vote was 9-2, passed as emergency legislation. There have been threats to a council member over plan; office now guarded by Summit County Sheriff's Department.
If all goes as planned, Bath Township will be represented by two Summit County Council representatives in 2013. Council voted 9-2 to move the township from District 1, represented by Nick Kostandaras, to districts 4 and 5, represented by Tamela Lee (4) and Frank Communale (5). Bath Township officials challenge the legality of passing the legislation as an emergency, which prevents them from trying to overturn the legislation by referendum. The new districts would join Bath Township with districts covering Cuyahoga Falls, Akron, Fairlawn and Copley Township (see attached map). Many Bath Township residents and Township officials oppose the plan. Trustees have said it will join Bath with cities, which have different priorities. Residents who …

I saw Obama yesterday claiming the new job numbers are proof that his policies are working and that we are in an economic recovery... Fact is, that is not the truth, or even close to the truth... First, the unemployment rate ticked up to 7.9% and the year-to-date monthly average of 157,000 payroll jobs is barely enough to keep up with population growth -- much less make up for the 8 million jobs … more ›
