Warren Davidson Should Run Against Vivek Ramaswamy for Ohio Governor
Ohio is an important state and it needs a serious governor
Congressman Warren Davidson occupies John Boehner’s old seat that covers Western Ohio and the northern suburbs of Cincinnati. He should be the next governor of Ohio.
Davidson is an actual new type of Republican, which is to say he is an old type of Republican that the Tafts would have liked. He favors restraint abroad and economy at home.
A number of companies are proposing new investments in Ohio, and Davidson is the guy to make that happen in a way that doesn’t involve giving away the farm, as Vivek Ramaswamy is likely to do.
The whole scene Ramaswamy has been part of in the course of his private sector experience is over, he has no record to speak of, and he’s a paper tiger. The PayPal mafia wants him there because they want to negotiate across the table with one of their guys, which is why Ohio should elect someone else.
Davidson is a West Point grad and Army ranger, and his record on war and peace is second to none in Congress. Virtually nobody else has been so consistently concerned about the expansions of executive power after 9/11, and has a strong civil libertarian streak. He walks the walk.
Vivek Ramaswamy ran a scammy biotech financial engineering play, Warren Davidson’s private sector experience is in actual manufacturing. Ramaswamy took stands when they were popular, Davidson took them against interest and against the grain. He has a record that deserves to be rewarded with higher office.
