I think our chances in Ohio are pretty slim. It's close now, but Sherrod Brown just isn't an exciting candidate. Hackett had a tendency to shoot his mouth off but at least he was energizing. Unless Strickland's lead solidifies at 15-20% and he can carry Brown on his coattails, I think this one will just slide off the map.
Hackett would have had a great matchup against DeWine with the gun issue added to the mix. Brown and DeWine are both gun grabbers.
That said, I think the base will still skip that race.
