It doesn't get any better in the U.S. Senate race where former party state chair Jane Timken, perennial right-wing candidate Josh Mandel and author J.D. Vance are fighting over who is the most Trumpian.
Ohio State Sen. Matt Dolan jumped into the race, giving the anti-Trump forces an outside shot if the others split their vote. It'll be interesting to see if retiring Sen. Rob Portman — who didn't stand up to Trump for four years — will show political courage now that he’s not facing voters.
It’s not much better in neighboring Pennsylvania, where the leading Republican U.S. Senate candidate, Sean Parnell, a veteran and failed congressional candidate, is running as a total Trump man. This is no longer the Republican party of Governors Dick Thornburgh and Tom Ridge or Senators John Heinz and Arlen Specter.
Parnell is running for the seat of retiring Republican Sen. Pat Toomey; it’s one of the main Democratic targets next year, along with the seat of retiring North Carolina Republican Sen. Richard Burr. For Burr’s seat, Trump has endorsed right-wing Congressman Ted Budd, whose chief primary opponent, former Gov. Pat McCrory, seems at times to be claiming he's actually more Trumpian than Trump’s endorsee.

Their system auto-filled when they typed part of a number in and they made good with a batch of free rentals; but the best part was asking what the fella's full name was. Moe Slizlak tells it better:
"Hello, you've reached Moe's Bar. Uh huh. Hold on; I'll ask."
"Michael Hunt! Hey, has anyone here seen Mike Hunt!?"
OHIO PING!
Please let me know if you want on or off the Ohio Ping list.
Anti-Trump Republicans on the line in 2022 too
