Fox News ^ | Nov. 4, 2012 | Van Hipp

Still, with all due respect to the field of this week's victors, the storyline of one winner stands above the rest: John Kasich is the governor-elect of Ohio.

But more telling than just his win is how he did it: by withstanding an Obama onslaught; turning back liberal fear attacks with a message of hope; and offering a leaner, more efficient alternative to big government run amuck.

In short, if Barack Obama's spend and tax presidency for the past two years is a question, John Kasich emerged Tuesday night as the logical answer.

A very good guy and I have always liked him. I would vote for Kasich for Pres. His only problem may be he is a little too modest and self effacing i.e. he is not an ego maniac. He is 180% of the imperious Mugabe-in-training muslim.

Kasich set the tone today by announcing,"Passenger rail in Ohio is DEAD!.

He strangled one horrible boondoggle before he even took office. Not a bad start.

Oh crap. Christie is a mega Springsteen fan - gag. LEahy is a huge Dead fan. The Dead and Springsteen exponentially suck.

We were fortunate, indeed, to have elected John Kasich. Another Strickland term would have finished off Ohio.

Looks like Ohio has figured out your game.

Even at 7$ gasoline, automobile transportation is more efficient when construction, maintenance, and operating costs are figured in.

That is why Chrissy Matthews was whining about high speed rail in the rust belt would save the country. It seemed to come out of left field. Makes sense now.

Love Kasich. Hope he does well.

Isn’t it great when Wolverines and Buckeyes can get along?

Am so proud of what has happened in our two states up here.

This was quite the message to the nation.

Talk about a shellacing: Because of the landslide victory in Ohio, the redistricting commission here gets 4 Republicans and only 1 Democrap.

This is the man who balanced the budget in the 90’s. He can bring the GOP back to the Contract with America.

Is that the last word now?

I read it was dead this morning, then I read that the deal had been quietly finalized and signed over the weekend and that it was a done deal.
