In the glass half full section. Obamacare got routed in Ohio!
This is the silver lining and it bodes poorly for zero’s chances even in OH and it might give Kennedy a nudge to the conservative position (although the latest district court position was disappointing to say the least).
That is the proof that the union bill was not about Obama or supporting Obama.
Kasich was terribly served by the Ohio Legislature that loaded that legislation up with all kinds of junk. Honest to goodness, they tried to spell out HOW evaluations would be done on workers. It was silly. It got so much into the weeds that it even had students evaluating teachers. Honest to goodness. ("student satisfaction, which may be measured by surveys,questionnaires, or other forms of soliciting feedback")
Sen Tom Niehaus, a wheeler-dealer, helped construct a bill that would never pass.
Had this been a clean bill just about collective bargaining over pay and pensions this would have passed by a landslide.
The media is going to present this as some kind of triumph for Obama. The truth will be that Ohioans looked at this over-reaching bill and rejected because it was a monstrosity.
