OH-Sen: Cincinnati Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld likely running

[Pandaguineapig]

Ryan officially out.

The guy has been "future" of the dem party of ohio since 2003 yet always seems to chicken out of runs for higher office at the last moment

No, he's just being very careful about when he runs statewide.  He's on a good committee and has a safe House seat.  He isn't gonna risk that unless the time is right.  Strickland's running this time, so of course Ryan won't run this time.

Strickland is still a maybe and is way past his prime(reminds me of tommy Thompson in 2012) so I think Ryan would have been the better candidate, I think he might never run for senate or gov and rather seek a committee chair or leadership position in the house

Ted Strickland is probably going to end up as the Tommy Thompson of 2016, an over the hill former governor who is running more as a reflection of their state party's horrible bench and will probably lose by somewhere in the mid single digits

The Ohio Democrats don't really have a horrible bench, though.

Who else do they have? Sittenfield is only known locally, and tim Ryan probably will never leave the house
