Tommy Thompson was more embarrassing, given that he won four terms in office, which only ended when he won promotion to the Cabinet. Strickland served only one term which ended in defeat. Thompson had a much higher fall from grace.
Agreed. Also because Strickland is running against an incumbent Senator that is a fundraising powerhouse, whereas Thompson ran against a very liberal lesbian who was initially unknown to 90% of the state.
I said he was emulating his idol - Strickland's not quite as embarrassing as the Thompster, obviously.
