So Kasich has the vote of Rockefeller Republicans who are comfortable being in Obama’s administration locked up.

LaHood is a registered Republican (a solid and upstanding member The Combine).

You can’t get anymore 100% GOPe/Illinois Combine than ole Ray. He sacrificed his safe House seat to take one for the team and be Obammy’s Transportation Secretary so Obama could claim he was being bipartisan in his appointments in his cabinet. But the IL Combine paid him back by giving his son that House seat a few years later so he could continue the family business.
