What I don't get is why he thinks he's so different.

John Kasich appeared in a pre-debate rally in Ohio on Tuesday. He was fed up. He appeared exasperated. He went ballistic in a section of his speech.
"Do you know how crazy this election is?"John Kasich said. "Let me tell you something. I've about had it with these people. Let me tell you why. We got one candidate that says we ought to abolish Medicaid and Medicare. You ever heard anything so crazy as that, telling our people in this country who are seniors or about to be seniors that we're going to abolish Medicaid and Medicare." Kasich was referring to statements Ben Carson made.
"We got one person saying we ought to have a 10% flat tax," Kasich said. "That would drive up the deficit in this country by trillions of dollars that my daughters would spend the rest of their lives having to pay off. You know what I say to them. Why don't we have no taxes? Just get rid of them all. And then a chicken in every pot on top of it." He was likely referring to statements made by Ben Carson, Ted Cruz, and Rand Paul.
"We got one guy that says we ought to take 10 or 11 million people and pick them up, where theI don't know where, we're going to go in their homes, their apartments. We're going to pick them up and we're going to take them to the border and scream at them to get out of our country," Kasich said. "Well that's just crazy. That is just crazy." Of course John Kasich was referring to Donald Trump and his anti-immigrant stances and promise to deport 11 million immigrants.

(7,160 posts)Hell YOU were in the House taking it to President Clinton in the 90's. You "balanced the budget" by kicking the can down to the local level and letting Ohio rot. Oh we love the fracking killing our environment. I don't like Trump either but he is right about you.

(24,461 posts)Kat$hit pointing out the most batshit of RW positions doesn't make him any less of a scumbag.
Us Ohioans know better. The guy lied about his "$.89 in Ohio's coffers" talking point, he lied about getting us out of a deficit, he lied about Ted Strickland's jobs record and he continues to suck as a governor.
