2006 Ohio 18th Congressional District Race

Now that Congressman Ney has dropped out of the race, Republicans have a much better chance of holding his congressional seat. A popular Republican State Senator is now the GOP candidate here. Given that this was the most vulnerable Republican congressional seat in Ohio, it bodes very well nationwide.

It works out so much better... (Below threshold)
Jim Addison:

It works out so much better when those who are under a serious ethical cloud take themselves out of the running. It should never have to get to the voters.

There will be cases where an innocent officeholder is unjustly accused, and even when exonerated cannot get the old job back, of course. It's still preferable they not run until the accusations are resolved. Like Caesar's wife, our members of Congress ought be above suspicion.

I refer, naturally, to serious and credible charges: no one should have to step down just because some crank levels unsubstantiated accusations.

This is a great development... (Below threshold)
Ken Hupp:

This is a great development. Especially if it takes one of the Democrats best pickup opportunities off the table. Hopefully it will have a helpful effect on some of the other GOP candidates in Ohio, who have been hurt by scandals, even though they had nothing to do with them.
