This is a big deal because the Teamsters are a big union in Ohio. For a while, a leftwing Democrat interest group was running ads against Portman claiming he was helping China against US workers and that he supported NAFTA (which of course was supported by Clinton). Well now there are ads supporting Portman for his advocacy of American workers over Chinese imports but the endorsement from one of the biggest unions in Ohio is going to help him as he has pulled ahead of Strickland.
