Welcome to the show, Josh.

Ya gotta admit, this kid has a helluva story to tell.

Mandel will have to make this campaign about incumbent Treasurer Kevin Boyce and the state of Ohio’s economy. Pin the massive job losses on him and go to work.

Also, props to the Ohio GOP. They’ve recruited a great slate of statewide candidates for the 2010 election. Kasich, Portman, Taylor, Husted and now Josh Mandel. Keep up the good work, Mr. DeWine.
