The Columbus Dispatch reports on the record number of people using food stamps in Ohio:

Nearly one in 10 Ohioans now receives food stamps, the highest number in the state's history.

Caseloads have almost doubled just since 2001, with 1.1 million residents now collecting benefits, according to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services.

Low wages, unemployment and the rising cost of groceries, gasoline and other necessities are to blame for financial hardships facing many Ohio families.

President Bush's time in office has been a disaster for the economy and John McCain wants to bring us four more years of the same failed policies.
