I'm from MA. Believe it or not, there are real conservatives in rural MA....just not enough to win state and national elections. OH, where I live now, is worse. Here, the voters thought they were electing real conservatives who would bring jobs back to the US and trim the size of government and its budget. But, alas, all of those candidates have been hand-picked by corporations that only care about their power and profit.

Kasich on Medicaid? The weak argument he gave is that the hospitials, Cleveland Clinic in particular, liked increased Medicaid becuae they could profit from it. So Kasich caved to his paymasters.

He's done other weird things like negotiate with Frank Jackson to throw even more money at the Cleveland school system. The four casinos, one in each city, were bad enough. Now there's a racino or rockcino or whatever it seems like on every street corner. (exaggeration, but you get the point).

Summary....Kasich has no moral compass whatsoever. Portman was always a globalist corporate guy passing himself off as a conservative as long as he could. Boehner seems to take it as his mission to undermine the conservative agenda and help Obama's. And Cantor is really big on compromises that are sellouts.

One could argue that Ohio's "Republicans" are one of the biggest problems constitutional conservatives face. I'm disgusted. The voters tried to elect conservatives, and we got backstabbers.

grrr....end of rant.
