From Dayton Daily News:
But a sour economy, two potentially expensive primaries and internal squabbles could hurt the Democrats going into the 2010 election cycle, according to key people on both sides of the aisle.
Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern is worried that potentially bitter primaries could hurt the Democrats’ chances in 2010.
“I think primaries tend to … diminish resources,” he said. “In a period of time when we should be focusing on the other side, we’re looking inward. That’s never helpful for a party.”
Ohio Republican Party Chairman Kevin DeWine said, “It gives us a great opportunity. Nobody is handing us anything. We’re not taking anything for granted, but it gives us a great opportunity.”
