Besides the poll that had Brown trailing Mandel by 5 points, has there been any recent poll in the 2018 OH US Senate Race which has Brown leading Mandel by at least 5 points? Is Brown likely to be the OH Democratic party version of Ron Johnson? Johnson-R trailed Feingold by at least 5 points in most polls during the 2016 WI US Senate Race but ended up winning by a 4 point margin? Brown can trail in majority of the polls and end up winning by at least a 5 point margin.

He is soooooo weird.

His mannerisms and demeanor are repulsive, to say nothing of his repugnant political ideology.

Koch and the rest of the junta will pull out all the stops to install him by any and all means possible I'm sure. <shudder>

Flake's position on gun control. If Flake supports gun control, he will be vulnerable for defeat in the primary against Kelli Ward-R. If Flake opposes gun control, he will be vulnerable for defeat in the general against Kelly-D.

But there is a great looking guy running against Martha McSally. His name is Billy Kovaks. He has that all american look that I think is a good sell. Not that it should matter but it is what it is. The competition for her seat is already gearing up to be pretty crowded. We shall see. And we shall see what they all stand for. Either way, she is wretched and she needs to go.

I am hopeful Mcsally will be gone. All they have to do is keep repeating how she stood with trump 100%. Just associate her with trump as much as possible and it will be a win.

If the gop wants to keep this office they are going to have to pay big bucks for it. What they dished out for Handler will be chump change compared to this district. This is normally a blue district. And you can bet all the groups (indivisible, pp, nasty women, etc) will be out in full force for midterms. You can bank on that.
