Breaking; Josh Mandel Ends Bid for Senate in OH

People's Pundit Daily ^ | 1/5/2018 | Richard Baris

[LS]

Serious blow. He was well ahead and a sure winner.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Anyone know what’s wrong with his wife or is this b*******

[House Atreides]

Wow, this is a big loss of a very competitive conservative candidate.

Prayers up for his wife’s health.

[Vendome]

[griswold3]

Josh Lost to Sherrod last time.
Mike Gibbons could beat Brown.

[americas.best.days...]

Dang! I was pulling for him. My gut instinct is this is seldom the WHOLE story, even if it is a real situation.

Serious health issues require good health benefits.

Who knows. Goody. DeWine.

[jmaroneps37]

Not the end of the world. Ohio has swung right so that seat is still on the radar.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

John Kaschich is available.

[gibsonguy]

It is bad news but at least we know the Rat is vulnerable.

[EC Washington]

Sherrod Brown is the Dick Durbin of Ohio - Always claiming he is for the working people then stabbing them in the back with his Senate votes. If it weren’t for Cleveland and their 131% voter turn out, Brown would have lost the last election.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Pig Vomit isn’t fit to serve as a toilet seat.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Very bad. The worry here is if Pig Vomit will try to run instead. I’d campaign for Sherrod Brown before I’d support him for anything. A treacherous scumbag like Willard.

[Faith]

God bless the man. Prayers for his wife.

[stars & stripes forever]

[John Kaschich is available]

MITT is back. Wouldn’t be surprised to see JOHN take up where McCAIN left off.

[xzins]

My guess is that Kasich will step in

[CommerceComet]

Serious blow. He was well ahead and a sure winner.

Putting aside a political career to care for an ailing wife makes him an even bigger winner in my book.

In a state as big as Ohio, there must be some other viable candidates.

[Ticonderoga34]

I would like to see Jim Jordan run for the Senate against Sherrod Brown.

[AuH2ORepublican]

Jim Jordan would be my first choice as well. Unfortunately, I think that it is likelier that Jordan will prefer to stay in the House and that one of the prominent Republicans in the gubernatorial race (such as Lt. Gov. Taylor or Congressman Renacci) will switch to the Senate race.

[burghguy]

I second the Jim Jordan idea. He has really impressed me as a great patriot.

[ichabod1]

I can see how it might be difficult to campaign when a spouse is undergoing chemo.
