The 39-year-old, who has served as a member of Ohio’s Minerva Village Council for 13 years, just wanted to win his party’s nomination for Treasurer when he got up in front of a crowd of 100 people Wednesday night. But the speech he gave at fever pitch was so startlingly emotional and over-the-top; it turned him into an overnight Internet sensation. “I will not apologize for my tone tonight,” he bellowed, kicking off a six-minute address in which he often seemed to be near tears. “I have been a Republican in times good, and I have been a Republican in times bad,” he shrieked before stumbling over a quote from Albert Einstein. Shouting frantically and pacing back and forth, Davidson tried to stir up emotion from the crowd with lines like, “Politics is not touch football. Politics is winner take all. It always has been. And it always will be.” Despite his intensity, his words didn’t seem to spark
