> Rep. Max Miller says he will remain in the race for reelection despite allegations of abuse and scrutiny over his attorney’s accidental release of a sensitive image involving his child. Conservative broadcaster Erik Erickson calls that decision a mistake. He says Miller’s continued candidacy could potentially cost Republicans three seats in Ohio. Erickson discussed Miller with CNN’s Jake Tapper, while David Axelrod and S.E. Cupp examined the possible consequences for the campaign.
