"The drubbing Ohio Governor John Kasich (R) took over the repeal of SB 5, his signature legislative initiative that striped collective bargaining rights from public unions as a way to curtail state and local budgets, has effectively crushed his personal standing in the state. A new Public Policy Polling (D) survey shows only 33 percent of Ohio general election voters approve of his job performance, while a majority of 53 percent are disappointed with it. Those numbers translate into a serious case of buyer’s remorse on the behalf of Ohioans, as Kasich would lose a rematch against former Gov. Ted Strickland (D) by twenty points in the poll.

“Ohio voters sent John Kasich a strong message in November by repealing Senate Bill 5 and his numbers haven’t improved any since then,” said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling in a release. “He remains one of the least popular Governors in the country and that could help Democratic prospects in the state this fall.”

1. At least he's got a lot of company in the "Least Popular (R) Governor's Club".

Wouldn't want him to be all lonely with no one to talk to.

2. I think polls showed serious buyers remorse here in Ohio just months ...

... after his election.

3. But they have to keep him because

there are no do overs.

4. If we could recall him, we would in a landslide, but there is no recall mechanism here for that

And honestly, Mary Taylor (Lt Governor) is even worse. Kasich is on his way out. We all wonder if he will even run again.
