A Bloomberg Businessweek profile of Ohio?s Republican U.S. Senate candidate, Rob Portman, includes the following:

A landslide win by Portman on Nov. 2 would defy logic in this anti-Establishment year. The former U.S. Trade Representative embodies everything the Tea Party and its offshoots are not: a polished Washington insider reaching the next rung in a political career that began, and some predict may end, at the White House.

This, of course, misses the key point: Portman has nothing to do with the failed policies of President Obama.
