Last Friday, I wrote in Money Talk that Rob Portman could catch some of the blame if he wins while Ohio Republicans lost the Apportionment Board. Enter National Review's Mytheos Holt on Monday with a piece about Portmans "Ohio's Future PAC" which really doesn't address exactly what I was talking about but does demonstrate that Portman is well aware that there is more at stake than just a US Senate seat.
A quick search over at Open Secrets shows plenty of donations to Republicans in and out of the great state of Ohio. I spot checked a few of the "big" names on the expenditure report and the last donation to a statewide candidate was to Josh Mandel...in April. That data is based on information released on September 30th, so it is possible that Ohio's Future has donated to statewide candidates this month, but...
Mr. Holt should have dug a little deeper...
I have an email in to Team Portman to see if Ohio's Future has made any donations lately.
