not the first. She was my representative (!) - hard to believe.

Steve Chabot (district 1) was defeated by a Dem. for one term.
Agree Chabot needs to go. Not the sharpest pencil in the box.
Cincinnati is now a Democratic city, and Hamilton County a Democratic county. Should be represented by a Democrat.

Brad Wenstrup (R) now represents District 2, stretching from eastern part of Cincinnati east to Appalachian counties.
Very conservative, but likely to remain in office as long as he likes because he is rather clean - served in Iraq as head of the prison there, plus saved the life of the LA congressman that was shot at a baseball game. He has no former elected political history to sully his name.
