While an e-mail campaign appears to be brewing sent out to elected Republican figures through out the state, Jon Stainbrook, chair of the Lucas County Republican Party appeared on Fox Toledo tonight with Andrew Z in his Talk Back segment. When asked directly if Stainbrook recorded phone calls:

Andrew asked, “have you taped phone calls before”

Jon said, “Oh yes, I have”

Andrew asked “Shouldn’t people be worried if they call you up?”

Jon said, “As a journalist I always tape the interviews that I do”

Andrew said, “You’re not a journalist!”

Jon said “Yes, I am, that’s what I do for a living on the side…”

Watch the video for yourself in it’s complete form…For those of you wondering about the e-mails? Here’s the text of one that went to Kevin DeWine that I was sent a copy of:

Dear Chairman DeWine-

I wanted to inform you of a situation in the Lucas County Republican Party.
