Rob Portman...
He is so far ahead of democrat Lee Fisher in the race to take retiring George Voinovich's seat in the Senate that he is starting to pile it on...
If he succeeds and crushes Fisher like the polls say he will, he immediately puts Ohio in play for the 2012 election. Portman is viewed by many as a "moderate" republican.
But I was listening to the Buckeye game on the radio and his campaign was running some ads that could have been tea party ads, questioning Presidents Obama's religion in a very subtle way but still clear. Portman did not speak in the ad but it came from the Portman Campaign.
This is really off the radar but it shows that Fisher is no longer a consideration for the Portman Campaign.
He could be real trouble as he would look like the sane one when compared to all the other loony toons running for the republican nominee...
I know he was Bush's budget director but that can easily be defended as he left before the end of the second term.
Mark my words, he is President Obama's worst nightmare.
Which is why I still don't understand why the people running the show in Ohio thought Fisher was the best candidate to take on Portman.
