lee fisher won that coin toss. he will begin with a two minute opening statement. >> ohio, washington. main street -- wall street. export goods -- export jobs. i begin this way tonight because this is a very clear choice between is someone who has traveled to ohio fighting for the people of ohio and someone who has spent the last 20 years fighting for special interests. as attorney general, i closed the drug houses throughout our state. as the head of the center for families and children, i helped struggling families get back on their feet. and as lieutenant governor, i have been in every corner of the state in the middle of this unprecedented economic storm working to save and create jobs. what about congressman portman? you would never know what listening to him tonight, but here is who he is. he was a lobbyist for a foreign country. she was the congressman who supported the regulation of wall street. he was george bush's trade adviser and budget director, supporting policies that gave tax breaks to large compani

lee fisher supports the government buying stock of banks. this is like mini tarp. >> thank you. mr. fisher? >> i had a law school professor who once said it is better to [unintelligible] than have an ambulance below. as far as i know, all of the big wall street firms are thrilled with the fact that congress wants to repeal of that reform. i think that having a consumer financial agency that looks out for the consumer everything ranging from credit card rates, which are outrageous, to the kinds of consecutive derivative trading that occurred when banks played with middle-class famil ies' money, that should never happen again. congressman portman was one of those that voted for repealing the glass-steagall act, which basically said eubanks can go and start speculating. >> your time is up, mr. fisher. >> at this point, we have closing statements, two minutes for each gentleman to give their closing statement. rob portman, you go first. >> thank you, diane, and i want to thank the four reporters here today. could questions. i want to thank our organizers for giving us a chance to talk di

high is 44th in the country under lee fisher.need to coordinate and better prepare we are first in the country and getting workers the retraining they need. >> thank you. it is hard to look those men and women in the eye and say that there is the damage done we have free trade. 50,000 jobs have been lost because of nasa. because the trade with china, 100,000 jobs have been lost. think about this. at the end of the bush years, they are selling is 800 billion more dollars of stuff that we are selling them. that does not make any sense at all. the bottom line is that we can and we must do both when congressman porter was the trade adviser, he refused to put quotas on steel pipes despite the fact that manufacturers acton -- asked him to do it. his record is not what he says it is. >> the next question goes to the fisher. >> you were director of the ohio department of development. the unemployment rate declined. why should voters in this economy pick you? >> in the middle of a national economic storm, states had two choices. they can

lee fisher is demagoguing on trade. ohio depends on exports. 25% of ohio factory workers have jobs because of exports. we need to expand exports. yet, we although lieutenant governor fisher said he is for export, he is not he does not support -- he is not. he does not support the trade agreements. he supports higher taxes on u.s. companies, both small companies and big companies. he supported the watching to an approach -- the washington approach. this will make it more difficult to keep jobs here. we need to enforce our trade laws and expand exports. if we do not do that, we will hurt all hire workers. . >> certain sectors can be heard by foreign competition. what the say to people who have lost jobs to foreign countries? what responsibility does the u.s. government have to assist those people? >> again, trade should be about two things, one, ensuring that we have a level playing field, enforcing our trade laws. i did that when i was in a position to do it. i sued china, the first person to ever to do it and we won. it
