The arrogance of so many of these politicians. Portman was a very good congressman, and probably a decent Senator, but what on earth would make him think he has the ability to run a campaign of this magnitude?
It really depends who is better known during the Primaries, and who gets the big blocks out of GOP support. He may not be one of those individuals. Then again, he or a liberal GOP could get nominated if we have too many conservatives crash and burn. Hopefully Cruz turns out better.
