WESTERVILLE, Ohio (AP) — The lone Republican moderate at a U.S. Senate candidate forum in Ohio says that at one point he felt “like a Browns fan in Pittsburgh Stadium.” The crowd of about 950 at the evangelical Genoa Baptist Church north of Columbus never quite booed state Sen. Matt Dolan during the Sunday night forum, but they didn’t embrace him either.
