The "Oh Shit" Poll

That would be one way to describe this one, that shows Governor Strickland trailing John Kasich 48%-39%. But on the bright side, maybe people won't realize that Lee Fisher is Lieutenant Governor, and his numbers will surely be better? Right?

More bad news for the Governor

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: it ain't 2006 anymore. That big victory and those high approval ratings for Ted Strickland are long gone. The latest poll out today, via Buckeye State Blog, shows him in a dead heat with John Kasich, 40-40.

Hopefully, the Governor wins re-election. But he might not. And for better or worse, Lee Fisher's numbers are going to be tied to his. Please, Democrats, nominate a U.S. Senate candidate that comes from somewhere other than the sinking political ship that is Strickland-Fisher. Please?
