Chris Celeste backs Brunner over Fisher for U.S. Senate
Christopher Celeste, son of former Ohio Gov. Dick Celeste, is backing Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner over Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher for the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination in 2010.
Celeste had considered entering the Senate race himself but in a statement released on Wednesday, July 1, said he “ultimately decided entering this particular race, at this particular time, would not be in my party’s, or my, best interest.”
He said both Fisher and Brunner were “formidable politicians.”
“….I have decided to support, invest in and personally work of behalf of Jennifer Brunner….,” he said.
“Jennifer’s public leadership demonstrates an impressive mix of creativity, collaboration and courage.”

So…we’re supposed to care what someone on the Dick Celeste Gravy Train has to say? At least include in the blog post why Chris’s input is so vital…besides being son of Dicky.
