let's turn to democratic congressman tim ryan of ohio and maureen reedy, the teacher of the year in 2002 in the state of ohio and is now running for a seat in the ohio house of representatives. i love the story. congressman, you first. great to have you with us tonight. is this going to connect with ohio voters, how much of an impact do you think vice president biden had today? >> well, it's huge. it just reminds everybody of how huge the auto rescue package was, it reminds everybody where we were and where we are now when one of every eight jobs in the state of ohio is related to the auto industry, the supply chain, the local tax base, huge cuts all across the state. can you imagine what communities would be like if they didn't have the auto workers and their supply chains paying taxes in ohio, and biden reminds everybody of that. >> and tim, what do you think of the guy across the aisle, rick crawford, are the republicans changing their policies a little bit? >> well, i think he's a dead man walking in a republican primary is what i think. they just can't get away with that over there.
