DescriptionThere will be no rematch between Democrat Sherrod Brown and Republican Mike DeWine for the U.S. Senate in 2012.

DeWine, who was elected Nov. 2 to a four-year term as Ohio attorney general, made that crystal clear last week: "I am planning on being attorney general. I am not running for U.S. Senate."

DeWine was in the Senate for 12 years until Brown defeated him in 2006. Talk about a rematch was spawned last week by a survey conducted by Public Policy Polling which showed DeWine and Brown tied in a hypothetical rematch, each with 43 percent. PPP released another survey showing that DeWine would be the first choice among Ohio Republicans to take on Brown in 2012.
