even more with tax breaks for the rich, but for ordinary people sales tax increases and cuts to essential public safety and local community services. What a shame for Ohioans.

Kasich is of blue collar and immigrant heritage and has been conservative since his youth, but is full on ultra right and scary. Those lucrative stock option salary bonuses in the hundreds of thousands of dollars from 2001-2008 when he worked as an investment banker at Lehman Bros. of Wall Street must have made a real impact.

Wiki, John Kasich
