Baker is very popular there. He's a fluke among the GOP. He's sane. Vinca Nov 2018 #2

Brown won big but Cordray lost. Brown and Warren are articulate and thoughtful populists. They propose sound policies. At least in Ohio, Cordray-D just couldn't connect and DeWine-R ran from a position of power as the GOP runs the state.

Baker is a lump. He's done nothing.
