"In no way, shape, or form does the Lucas County Republican Party condone the exploits of the Nazis."

"This is nothing more than a political attack against a candidate that has run a strong campaign against a 28 year incumbent who has neglected her constituents."

"This is a perfect example of dirty mudslinging politics - when people take something and spin it into more than what it is."

"This is proof that Marcy is scared and vulnerable when the state democratic party chairman comes up to the most democratic county in the state to throw a press conference and help Kaptur campaign sling the mud."

"This is a common tactic used in politics when they try to split a candidate away from their party."

"Rich Iott is still our candidate against Marcy Kaptur."
