I grew up in northeastern Ohio, and it used to be full of union steelworkers and heavily Democratic. The economy crashed when steel went down and got worse with the Reagan recession, and those of us starving folk who were able to leave did. I am appalled at who and what is left.
Throwing over the brilliant Tim Ryan for the shillbilly was astonishingly dumb.

True, but as Rachel Bitecofer has pointed out, Ryan ran a conventional campaign, which didn't expose some of the (potentially) disqualifying positions of J.D., especially with regard to women. Women are they key to stopping the madness that is unfolding, but I'm not confident they'll come through, painful as it is to say.
Elene, I'm in Lake County, in NE Ohio. Sounds like you were over toward the Mahoning Valley. And I'm with you; I'll never forgive all the slack-jawed yokels for allowing the likes of that shillbilly to hoodwink them. I'm hopeful Mr. Ryan will go after him again!
