Good News in Ohio For the GOP

Reuters – Former U.S. Trade Representative Rob Portman smiles during a news conference at the U.S. embassy in Geneva

In a recent poll taken by Reuters/Ipsos, Rob Portman, a formal senior official for President George W. Bush, is showing a commanding lead for the Senate seat in Ohio. Democrat Lee Fisher is far behind, 50 percent for Portman and, a dismal 37 percent for Fisher.

"Portman is really solidifying his lead -- it's starting to look insurmountable," Ipsos pollster Chris Jackson said. "Fisher hasn't been able to raise his profile enough to make a dent."

The Democrats have been trying to attack Portman for his previous work with the Bush administration, attempting to attach a stigma upon him by declaring his service will bring about the previous Bush tax-era. The only problem is, most people want those low taxes to continue for ALL Americans. There's also the problem of Bush never tanking the economy the way Obama and the Democrats have done since gaining full control over the Executive and Legislative branches of government.
