Name That Party: Cleveland

Don Surber blog

So easy, even a caveman can play.

If an official in the Young Republicans rapes a fellow Young Republican at a Young Republican convention, I expect the word “Republican” to be in the headline and the lead sentence.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer did not disappoint me (see link below).

Likewise, when a former president of the Cleveland City Council pleads guilty to violating the state’s ethics law, I expect his party to be identified.

The PD let me down. Well, that was really a follow-up to an earlier, 636-word scoop (links below).

But that story didn’t mention his party, either, although on first reference, it identified Tom Noe as “a Republican fund-raiser and coin dealer.”

So, is George Forbes a Democrat or is he a Democrat?
