Jim Renacci: 2010 bailout closed my car dealership; Feds shouldn't pick

This is Renacci's first statewide election, but he has waged several smaller campaigns successfully before. An accountant, businessman and former Wadsworth mayor, he won his first campaign for Congress in 2010 after losing his Chevrolet dealership in the auto industry bailout that President Barack Obama's administration orchestrated. The bailout required industry consolidation and dealership closings -- and General Motors picked Renacci's dealership to close.

Democrats and industry analysts said the restructuring saved the American auto industry. Critics including Renacci said it put the government in the role of central planner, picking winners and losers. Unlike in other recent Brown races, Renacci's business background provides a real-world contrast for the coming general election.
