Blackwell was the MOST conservative single candidate anywhere in the U.S., and he got crushed.

I reject the notion that Blackwell was conservative. I had an argument here, but I've removed it. I won't defend my opinion, and feel free to dismiss it. I decided that I'm not rehashing 2006, I just wanted to voice my opinion that Petro would have been the better candidate.

Petro was a copy of Taft. He got his butt beat in the primary, and rightfully so.

I didn’t mean “of all Republican potential candidates in OH.” I mean the most conservative candidate actually NOMINATED and RUNNING in any major contested race.
