Gerald Celente General Eric Holder resigns, President Obama has bombed seven nations - Video
It should come as no surprise that Ohio's Democrat Party leaders have endorsed former Gov. Ted Strickland as nominee for a U.S. Senate seat - without bothering to consider whether that may be the choice of Democrat voters.
But what is surprising is that the party machine believes Buckeye State residents have forgotten the mess Strickland created while governor.
On Saturday, party leaders endorsed Strickland in the Senate race next year against incumbent Republican Rob Portman. The endorsement came despite the fact the primary election is months away.
Another Democrat, Cincinnati city Councilman P.G. Sittenfield, already has announced he is running for the Senate. During the coming months, other Democrats may decide voters ought to have options other than Strickland.
But party leaders have made up their minds. Clearly, they would rather any other Democrat candidates just go away so they can get on with promoting Strickland for the Senate.
That will not be an easy task in a race against Portman, who has served Ohioans and the nation well in the Senate.
Any attempt to make Strickland appealing will have to rest on the hope that Ohio voters have short memories.
But many recall he left office having helped create an $8 billion state budget gap - after insisting Ohio had no fiscal worries.
Too many also recall Strickland's unequivocal support for President Barack Obama's policies, including those aimed at destroying the coal industry and with it, the reasonably priced electricity on which so many Ohioans rely.
Last fall, voters throughout the country turned their backs on members of Congress who had the attitude that their party's president came first, with their constituents a distant second. Democrat leaders in Ohio do not seem to have gotten the memo on that.

Strickland Bad Choice for Party
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) Hillary Clinton didnt mention her potential Republican rivals in her presidential campaign kickoff. But they were quick to bash her after she announced her second bid for the White House.
Rand Paul put Clinton at the center of his first TV ad, titled Liberty, not Hillary, writes the Associated Press. Scott Walker fired off a series of tweets describing the former first lady as having a Washington-knows-best mentality. Jeb Bush derided the Obama-Clinton foreign policy in a video. And South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham wrote on Twitter: The middle class is getting screwed by the administrations domestic agenda & I believe it would be more of the same with Clinton.
Clinton, meanwhile, headed for Iowa after announcing her White House run. She faces five questions as she heads there, writes the Des Moines Register, including: Will Clinton engage in a real battle with fellow Democrats? Activists interviewed by the Register proclaimed joy that former Maryland Gov. Martin OMalley and former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb appear on the cusp of presidential bids. They also hope Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Vermont Sen. Bernard Sanders will run, partly to pull Clinton to the left.
Environmental activists for Warren: Count climate activists among those whod like to see Elizabeth Warren run for the White House. They are lining up behind what National Journal calls the never-say-die campaign to draft her for a 2016 bid. The group Ready for Warren plans to soon unveil Environmental Activists for Warren, the latest sign that environmentalists fear Hillary Clinton wont take a strong stand on the issues they care most about.
Team Rubios thinking: Marco Rubio, the Republican senator from Florida, is set to launch his presidential campaign later Monday. Heres what a Rubio confidant told National Journal: Jeb [Bush] is the clear front-runner, [Scott] Walker is a not-quite-very-close second, and were a strong third. Rubio, the confidant said, has to have the patience to let Walker stumble, as people with no national experience usually do, and be agile to take advantage of the opening.
Tea-party roots: Rubio, Rand Paul and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz have one big thing in common, writes The Wall Street Journal: Each rose to power with support from the tea-party movement. Now those three, who all beat establishment-backed candidates in Senate primaries, will be competing for the loyalty of voters from that movement as they seek the Republican presidential nomination. This spate of candidates with tea-party roots and aspirations is a sign of how the Republican Party has been shaped by an anti-establishment movement that has emerged over the last six years.

Capitol Report: Republican field piles on Clinton after campaign launch
MIAMI --
Standing in front of a banner that proclaimed "A New American Century" and repeating that refrain throughout his kickoff speech, the 43-year-old Cuban-American used his first turn as a Republican presidential candidate to take on two of America's political dynasties. In doing so, he bet heavily on the electorate's frustrations with Washington and his ability to change how his party is seen by voters.
"This election is not just about what laws we are going to pass," Rubio told his evening rally. "It is a generational choice about what kind of country we will be."
He said it's also a choice between the haves and have-nots, nodding to his own upbringing by working-class parents. "I live an exceptional country where the son of a bartender and a maid can have the same dreams and the same future as those who come from power and privilege."
Earlier in the day, the first-term Republican from Florida spoke to his top donors and told them many families feel the American Dream is slipping away and young Americans face unequal opportunities. He's banking on the hope that he, alone among many GOP rivals, can make inroads with groups that have long eluded Republicans - young people, minorities and the less affluent.
"I feel uniquely qualified to not just make that argument, but to outline the policies that we need to have in order to achieve it," he said on the donor call.
In his televised speech, he told supporters, "The time has come for our generation to lead the way toward a new American century."
Rubio's remarks came as Clinton was traveling to Iowa on her first trip as a candidate. Her entrance into the race with an online video Sunday is robbing some attention from Rubio's splash into the race.
But Rubio saw an opportunity to cast the presidential contest as one between a fresh face representing a new generation of leadership and familiar faces harking back decades - namely, the 62-year-old Bush and the 67-year-old Clinton.
"While our people and economy are pushing the boundaries of the 21st century, too many of our leaders and their ideas are stuck in the 20th century," Rubio said to applause.
