OH-4 is close !
In yet another sign of the approaching Democratic tsunami, the Ohio Democratic Party reports in a new fundraising message that recent independent polling shows under-funded challenger Rick Siferd (D-Lima) only 8 points behind ultra-conservative State Sen. Jim Jordan (R-Urbana) in the exceedingly red 4th Congressional District, with independents favoring Siferd by more than 2 to 1. This is absolutely stunning news from a district that by all accounts appeared to be one of the very safest for the Republican party.
OMG. LOL.
Go Rick !
and thought it was ripe for the picking.

But not only did the national party write this district off, so did the Ohio Democratic Party. I can't believe this district wasn't included along with the 18th and 2nd as a possible pick-up if we concentrated on it.
I was laughed at for this (including giggles by the editor of the Mansfield newspaper -- an old, old friend).
We should have gotten this one, but at 8 points with only 3 days, and nobody targeting it until now, I think it's too late, dammit.
Oh, and someone tell Ben Konop to grow a mustache or something so he looks older than 22.
