Josh Mandel: A
candidate to get excited about
Posted by Erick Erickson
Thursday, March 10th
I have to be honest with you. With the exception of Ted Cruz and
Michael Williams in Texas and Jeff Flake in Arizona, I am not really
that excited about any of the Senate races this year. There are few
solid conservative rockstars out there.
And yes, if you are thinking I am ignoring candidate X in your state,
I’ve thought of them. They’re good. But they are no Rand Paul or Jeff
Flake or Mike Lee or Ted Cruz or Michael Williams. Good does not equate
rockstar.
I might have a new race to get excited about. It appears Josh Mandel is
going to run against Vladimir Sherrod Brown (S-OH). Yes, i know I put
an “S” and not a “D” next to his name. He’s an unrepentant socialist.
Mandel is a solid conservative. He’s the Ohio Treasurer. He’s young. He
can win statewide. And should he definitely make a go of it, we should
all be willing to rally to him.
I hope that in other states candidates will shape up to be solid and
exciting. Right now though, while there are some good candidates out
there, too few are dazzling.
