Ohio may be in for its liveliest U.S. Senate race in a long time.

Though many Democrats were dis appointed when established elected officials like Reps. Sherrod Brown, Ted Strickland and Tim Ryan decided to forgo a Senate run next year, an even more interesting prospect ap pears to be gearing up to challenge Republican Sen. Mike DeWine's bid for a third term.

In his congressional race, Hackett's ferocious criticism of Bush made him a darling of liberal bloggers, who inspired donors nationwide to pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into his campaign. Hackett at various points called Bush a "chicken hawk" and a "son of a bitch."
