Strickland should never have been the candidate for this race

He has way too much baggage and the Kochs, NRA and a few other organizations have attacked him right and left.

Ted Strickland was a victim of the Bush Recession, his term as governor was in the middle of it and the states deficit and job losses mounted. Those have all been used against him in non-stop adds none of which mention that this all took place while the bush economy was destroying the country.

I will vote for Ted Strickland and campaign for him, but the right has made it a priority to make sure Portman can keep working for his corporate overlords.

Today, I am concerned about the affect on Hillary this will cause.
