We might have a chance to beat Sherrod Brown in OH. It will take a strong candidate with statewide appeal, and somewhat of a “wave” election, especially at the top of the ticket. Doable, but 50-50 at best at this point.

A presidential election year doesn’t look good too demographically speaking.

I think it's very likely that Brown gets beat....75-25 imho. Based on the Kasich win, I think Ohio is ready to move back to the right. If I remember correctly, Brown got elected in the same year as Strickland. The two are sort of tied to the same mood at the time.

Four things take Brown out: omuzzie’s continued malice toward business; a solid GOP candidate; a powerful GOP ground game; some successes by/for Kasich.
