Pat DeWine is now attacking Tom Brinkman. DeWine's campaign has collapsed so badly that his only chance of winning is to destroy everyone else. Brinkman has run a positive campaign so far and will continue to do so.
This should also address the issue someone else raised that Brinkman must not be a contender because nobody was attacking him. DeWine is now using the crooked Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters to attack Brinkman in recorded phone messages. DeWine must have also seen the latest round of polling that shows Brinkman taking the lead.

I do not believe that Deters has ever been a Brinkman guy. If I remember correctly, Brinkman beat Deters hand-picked opponent in the 2000 primary.
I can believe that either McEwen or Brinkman are ahead of DeWine.
