“To point the finger at this being an historic GOP district so therefore it should be easy for any GOP to win it, doesn’t square with the facts on the ground in this case.”
Very true! I agree with everything you posted. Sad to say, a lot of “repubicans” are “K-sick repubicans,” just like in AZ where evidently, “most repubicans” there are McCaniancs. So President Trump not only has to motivate people to vote out the RATs, he also has to do the same thing for the RINOs/GOPe! Because for him to continue without the wholehearted support of his own Party is just nuts. I continue to be just amazed at his level of energy and determination. He is wading in on absolutely everything that’s wrong, and doing so without his own party standing behind him. We have to break the hold that “big business” has on the GOPe. They don’t give a $hit about our country. It’s just a “big market” to them, and nothing else. I’d open a good bottle of wine and celebrate if I were to read that the Koch Bros. both died in a plane crash. Patriotism is out the window with these people.
Thanks for your post in support of mine.
In my post I posed the question, was Ohio’s 12th District where John Kasich was the U.S. House Rep for years.
Here’s what I copied from the Washington Post - confirms what I heard from a source and suspected was true:
“Voting results from the special election in Ohio’s 12th District to fill the seat vacated by Patrick J. Tiberi. ... Tiberi, a Republican, left Congress in January to lead the Ohio Business Roundtable. The central Ohio district, once represented by Ohio Gov. John Kasich, consists of suburban areas around Columbus.”
Bingo.
A Republican district, yes, but Kasich, Tiberi, Balderson aren’t cut from the cloth we need. I heard a caller on a.m. talk radio this morning say that Trump got him to come out and vote. He was mad at Tiberi for voting against Obamacare repeal and almost didn’t vote for Balderson...
