Can anyone explain why Ohio is so difficult this cycle? Did millions of non-whites move into the state over the last 4 years?
Same for Florida and Virginia. Romney can’t seem to break out in either state. Recent polls are still too close for comfort.
Public service unions for one thing. They were successful in overturning Governor Kasich’s collective bargaining law - the stupid voters in Ohio voted to do this. There are also many pockets of those on the government teat. Others are totally uniformed on the issues and hold to the stigma that Ds are for the poor and working class, while the Rs are only for the rich. You’d be surprised at the number of people I’ve heard repeat this lie.
I’m not giving up hope, but our governor has a low favorability rating - thanks to the unions. He only won the state by 2% and the left has howled ever since to make his life miserable.
