Can he win in November? That’s all that matters.
He’s a businessman/outsider. I think this will appeal? Who knows.
Also he’s quite an experienced candidate having ran for office before.
Plus, he’s got $ which helps.
Rand Paul endorsed him and is actually going to campaign for him in Ohio soon I believe.
That says a lot...
A monkey could win in Ohio in November with Biden in the White House.
Minus Sherrod Brown running in years favorable to Democrats, Republicans have won every statewide race in the last decade in Ohio.
What matters is whether he is the most conservative candidate and doesn't have any glaring liability that could cost him in the general election.
