We also lost Ernie Fletcher's seat in Kentucky after he won the governor's mansion, to cite another example.

oh yes you fool...I signed up 2 months ago just so I could post for this race.
We were told all day long this would be a walk for Schmit..some of you people are blind..this portends very very badly for 2006 and especially Ohio in 2006.
I dont know what the reason is for these numbers..but we better find out and stop fooling ourselves

I know Hackett kept telling everyone how "pro-gun" he is......

Clermont county has zero precincts reporting as of yet. We will dodge this bullet.

Losing a district where the incumbent GOP congressman won 70% isnt our share Incumbents almost always get 70% share, I posted the statistics in the first 100 posts of this thread. Incubency is a very valuable thing.

Schmidt has been creeping back up and with her counties yet to report she looks like a sure winner.

Incumbents almost always get 70% share, I posted the statistics in the first 100 posts of this thread. Incubency is a very valuable thing.Because 90% of districts are safe. Gerrymandering is a very valuable thing.

70% is a bit much for your average incumbent..
I agree this isnt like Dan Rostenkowski losing in 1994, but it is pretty bad
To: TNCMAXQ
I live in the district, and I didn't want to vote for either one of them... Schmidt may be a Republican, but she's no great prize. She voted to raise Ohio taxes in conjunction with Taft. Some says that makes her loyal.
If Schmidt wins, we don't get another conservative. We get a nominal RINO...

Schmidt won a close primary race with 4 "major" candidates. Schmidt won, then Bob McEwen(Christian Right, former congressman), then Tom Brinkman(tax-hawk, pro-lifer, pro-gunner, maverick), Pat DeWine was 4th and was the "frontrunner" who crashed and burned in a disaster.
McEwen won the rural areas which Hackett is also winning. Brinkman and Schmidt split Hamilton County. Schmidt won because of Clermont County.
