“The Ohio Democrat Party is trying to pressure the perennial candidate to drop out so they can name a replacement. They have until the thirteenth of August.”

Of course the RATs will pressure their third-tier candidate to drop out; if the shoe was on the other foot, the GOP would likely do the same. The only difference is how hard they will push the guy. If he’s a perennial officeseeker, though, I don’t think they’ll be able to convince him to drop out: he’s probably thinking “this is my big chance!” And the primary was several months ago, so he must feel that he has skin in the game.

He ran and lost in 2000 and 2002.

The guy who ran and lost in 2008 and 2010 is running for State Supreme Court after winning a fluke primary.

I guess it is a good year to be a guy who ran against LaT twice and lost by 20+ points each time.

The only name I could think of would be for the Dems to run Eric Fingerhut again, and after his single term in Congress, he did manage to return to the Ohio Senate for awhile (left office in 2007).
