then I read this:

Brunner says she won’t campaign for Fisher if she loses Tuesday

By Laura A. Bischoff and William Hershey
Columbus Bureau Updated 12:30 AM Sunday, May 2, 2010

COLUMBUS — It’s customary in a primary election for the losing candidate to campaign for their party’s nominee in the fall.

But if she loses Tuesday’s Democratic primary for U.S. Senate, Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner won’t be telling Democrats to vote for the party nominee in November.

Asked by a Dayton Daily News reporter last week how much she would work for Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher if he wins and she loses, Brunner held up her hand and formed a zero.

Her unwillingness to embrace Fisher is indicative of the rancor bubbling in the Democratic Senate race.

Any Democratic Candidate making such a statement prior to the results of a primary is NEVER cool and any candidate doing so deserves to lose.
