Ohio is only important in even numbered years. The Hill.com has an article today about its importance to the various political parties in Washington. The final paragraph caught my eye, for freshman Rep. Bill Johnson (R-Ohio) is being targeted as being vulnerable due to polling and attacks from House Majority PAC, a Democratic super-PAC. Rep. Johnson ousted Rep. Charlie Wilson (D-Ohio) in 2010, and Charlie Wilson wants HIS SEAT back(as his company's website indicates he is "serving as a US Congressman").
The district in question has seen a revitalization of late with Oil Companies and their fracking. Fracking is seen as a non-starter by those who dislike job creation that comes with risk to the environment.
The area in question had its economic peak when the Coal and Steel industries were booming.
Charlie Wilson supported those industries in the past, but does he support fracking?
Charlie Wilson is a small business owner that supposedly understands the difficulties of the struggling economy.
Last I checked, people still die, and a Funeral Home Owner profits directly from the deaths of his neighbors.
Rep. Johnson, clearly, is open-minded to fracking.
