O-Hi-O

Looks like the Republicans have found a potential replacement for George Voinovich in Ohio: former Bush budget director Rob Portman, who is also a former Ohio congressman. I recall a lot of people were talking up Portman as a potential VP for McCain. Well, maybe he will get to the Senate in the end.

It'll be interesting to see how much impact the Bush legacy has on this race. Will Portman be dragged down by the fact that he used to work in the Bush White House? Or will he be able to rise above it? It'll be an interesting sneak preview of Bush's legacy.
