How Not to Recruit Candidates for Critical Elections
Maybe it's just me, and I'm not a political strategist by any stretch (in fact, I adopt a wary stance at the whole profession), but this:
When [Curt Cobb] told me he was stepping down, I [Rep. Mike Turner] asked him who he was going to get to take his place, and he said, ‘I’ve got a man who’s more popular than I am.’ And I said, ‘Who?’ And he said, ‘My brother.’ I said, ‘Sounds good to me.’ And we kind of went from there.
...just doesn't sound like a solid plan, given the stakes for the recent House District 62 special election, as perceived by those in, you know, the business.
