That's a pretty good start for endorsements!


"Hillary Clinton & the Ohio Democratic Women's Caucus both calling for Tim Ryan to run."

there will no doubt be a q anon type dipshit trying for the gop nomination most likely and if the field is crowded they could get it.

And will appeal to the part of the Republican party that is not sucked into the Trump cult based on working closey with DeWine on the COVID matter. That reality will pull in some who might otherwise vote for any Republican. For a state-wide win, we need someone with cross-party pull.

I heard from a fellow Dem this morning saying that Hillary needs to keep her mouth shut about Tim Ryan because her endorsement would be the kiss of death for him in Ohio.

I personally can’t think of someone whose endorsement would be more meaningful to me.

We’re not ALL mouth breathers here.

'Keep her mouth shut....kiss of death'

Sounds familiar...
Someone who doesn't want that Senate seat to go to a Democrat. (Or Not just THAT Dem)
Or someone with aspirations in case the current seat they're running for goes down in flames of humiliation.

Tim Ryan it is then!!


Hillary is still so involved in politics & fundraising & supporting so many small & many influential PACS.

Considering how it turned out last time no one listened to her warnings, umm, ya know 😬 it may be wise this time to trust the powerful HRC & the Ohio Democratic Women's Caucaus.

Ryan is politically strong & Dems need to grab that Senate seat.

I'd say that's what he's thinking.

The 2 of them working in tangent could do good things for Ohio.
