We have seen unlikely campaign issues in our time, but an Ohio Congress
race from last year tops them all. U.S. Rep. Jean Schmidt of Cincinnati
is charging her 2008 opponent, David Krikorian, with violating election
law by accusing Schmidt of being a puppet of Turkish efforts to deny
the mass killings of Armenians during World War I constituted genocide.
A state Elections Commission found probable cause of a violation and
ordered a full hearing.
We wonder what the candidates' positions are on the sinking of the
Lusitania and the League of Nations.
