Well, this month’s WSJ/Marist Poll was just released, and it’s not good news for Retread Ted. The poll shows Rob Portman with a 5-point lead over Strickland, and as Kevin Robillard reports, “Strickland has failed to consolidate Dems.”

Strickland’s unification problem has been no secret. In recent weeks Retread Ted has lost several key endorsements including: the Ohio Conference of Teamsters, the Fraternal Order of Police of Ohio, the United Mine Workers of America, and from Local 18 of the International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE).
