Ted, Ted, Ted

A capacity crowd of volunteers jammed Strickland campaign headquarters in downtown Columbus today to greet their newly-elected governor.

"Ted, Ted, Ted," they shouted.

In walked Ted Celeste, much to the delight of fans of his brother and former governor, Richard Celeste. Ted Celeste defeated incumbent state Rep. Geoff Smith Tuesday, one of seven seats gained by Democrats in the Ohio House.

When Strickland finally strolled in, the governor-elect shouted, "Ted."

"Ted," Celeste replied. The pair of Teds hugged as Democratic volunteers broke into cheers.

Richard Celeste was the last Democrat to win a governor's race in Ohio, in 1986.
