From Dayton Daily News:
Gov. Ted Strickland said Tuesday afternoon that Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher is the “best qualified” Democrat among those considering a run for U.S. Senate in 2010.
Strickland was in Dayton promoting his budget and his education program. After a meeting at the Dayton Daily News, he was asked about Senate race.
Strickland said he had met with Fisher Monday, and they discussed the race for the vacancy being created by the retirement of Sen. George Voinovich. Strickland said he thought Fisher hadn’t made the decision to run yet, but was clearly considering it.
[…] Now, will Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner jump in and take Fisher on? Might be quite an undertaking; After all, Governor Strickland likes Fisher for the job. […]
