FWIW, I don't know anyone who voted for Kasich. Those who line their pockets because of useless or even counterproductive construction projects and the elite Republican "in crowd" probably did. I'd sure like to know if any Freepers know of a corner of the state where folks like him.
All Kasich had to do to win in Ohio was be not-Ted Strickland.
Nationally the bar will be set much, much higher.
