DeWine voted against drilling in Anwr, and was famously worried about the caribou or some such nonsense. He has always voted AGAINST gun rights, and he was, iirc, a member of the gang of 14.
DeWine was a rino through and through. His saving grace was a pro-life voting record.
I voted for the good guys and when I couldn’t find work. Oh, wait, NM. My fiancee lied to the cops about me hitting her and Obama’s guilty before proven innocent VAWA laws and now I have a misdemenor on my record. Thanks Obama, for protecting women!
Strickland is gay too? LOL.
I’m thrilled his lead is the polls has evaporated.
Are they sorry the voted for Obortion Obama now?
Its probably get Obama to bail them out. Obama is busy sucking blood everywhere while the economy is going backwards and in doing so, he is showing no regard for the taxpayer and his burden.
Obama lied and the economy died.
Texas economy is a lot better than many states too. Time to send illegals home - Illegals, the Democrats and stinking RINOs are bankrupting the country.
You’re not alone Ohio - the unemployment rate here in NC is ONLY 11%. Michigan is at 15%. Florida is over 10%. All four states voted for The One...
Thanks Mr. Hope & Change!
Good! Although I could see Kasich running for senator or president instead of governor.
All I can say about Ohio is that my state and local tax burden dropped by around $5000 just from moving to Tennessee. Ohio is pricing themselves out of existence, just like Michigan. You can’t rob businesses and individuals and expect them to stay around.
I didn’t remember him being anti-gun, although I certainly remember his embarrassing stances on ANWR and judicial nominations. Still, we couldn’t get a prominent conservative to run against him in the primary, and he won the primary handily, so at that point it was DeWine or Sherrod Brown. I think OH Republicans should have gone for 80% conservative DeWine over 0% conservative Brown.
Thanks for the info! Then we have some of the RINO wing of the OH GOP right on here.
The other year when Dr. Coburn ran, the NRA endorsed Carson and then had to back off and endorse both when Carson was nothing but a liberal, but they considered him conservative because he supported gun rights.
One issue voters drive me up a wall. This requiring purity out of candidates is BS. You don’t get a conservative agenda by electing DemocRATs — never going to happen no matter how conservative they are when they get in office and especially the Congress they will vote for Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid every time.
What does it take to get through some people’s heads that when the chips are down the DemocRATs will follow their leaders.
Getting a pro-gay, pro-abortion Governor because he supported gun rights is cutting your nose off when Blackwell was by far the better candidate. Stupid people.
Hard to have sympathy for a person who trusts what a politician says.
Slot machines? Are you serious?
Kasich has already filed to run for Governor. Rob Portman is running for Voinovich’s Senate seat
Just wait until they tell you that it has to be "green" before you can sell it.
We have gone from living the American Dream to the American Nightmare.
The jury is still out on Strickland’s sexual preference. You may find these articles interesting:
