Cong. OH-2: Brinkman (R) considering run
This column in the Cincinnati Enquirer confirms that State Rep. Tom Brinkman (R) is considering a challenge to incumbent Jean Schmidt in the 2nd District. Although Brinkman encouraged former Rep. Bob McEwan (R) to get into the race after Schmidt's controversial attack on Rep. Murtha (D-Pa)) last year, Brinkman now says that McEwan waited too long to enter the race. Brinkman reportedly has sent a mailer to former contributors, asking if they would support him in this race. Credit to John Sauter at ODP Blog for this item.

I would add, as I have before, that Steve LaTourette needs a more viable challenger. LaTourette is vulnerable and his race is an opportunity for Dems to ad-blitz about the Delay Congress. His current opponents are a meteorologist and a law professor, neither of whom has run for anything before. And while being a novice is not grounds for automatic dismissal, neither of these guys has any money and neither is Paul Hackett at the podium.
