Whatever happened to Ohio? It used to be a very Repub state.

You answered your own question. They will probably vote Republican, but this way they can swing the electoral votes to the Dems.

Its kind of schizophrenic. They'll elect someone like Rob Portman to sit in the Senate along with someone like Sherrod Brown, who has a more liberal voting record than Barack Obama. John Kasich wins a near-record percent of the vote in his last run for Governor and then takes a deep dive into the murky waters of centrist-liberalism.
