Bad news for Ohio Gov.

[jaysunb]

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer:

What do you think of Gov. John Kasich? Take our poll

Ohio Gov. John Kasich has moved to privatize the state’s job-creation efforts, take on public-employee unions, ordered universities to come up with a plan for three-year degrees and proposed reforms to the state’s heavily used Medicaid system.

And he’s done this and more in less than four months in office.

What do you think of the job Kasich's doing as he nears his 100th day in office? Take our poll.

Elections Matter :evilfrown:

[Auggie]

1. Thanks. I just voted.

:evilgrin:

[bluestateguy]

2. Elections matter

Internet polls do not.

[Imajika]

7. Bingo...

Online polls like this are utterly meaningless and those who take solace in them are deluding themselves.

[SoCalDem]

9. Yep..and he will BE governor until he's voted OUT

free to muck with Ohio, sell off resources & assets, cut taxes for donors & screw everyone else..

It;s what Ohio elected, and until he's gone, they have to live with the consequences:(

Kasich is okay with dems hating him..they don't vote for him or donate to him anyway..

republicans always come out of the gate with their most obnoxious stuff, and by the time the next election comes around he knows that most of the white-hot anger will be calmed down, ans with some clever black-box voting, he'll get re-elected..unless there is an overwhelming dem turnout

15. Like I said....

ELECTIONS MATTER. :evilfrown:.
This is intended to be a message, not a "talking point." And fwiw, most major polling outfits show nearly the same results.

[Blue Owl]

16. Come election time though

Kasich will always win by a razor thin 51/49 margin, by some mysterious, divine luck.

[monmouth]

3. Me too. His disapprove #s just went up a notch....n/t

[lib2DaBone]

4. He dumped high speed rail and killed thousands of jobs....

He is going to give the State-Run Liquor stores to his corporate buddies and he is going to sell the Ohio Turnpike. (How can you sell something the taxpayers built and paid for?)

Then, the Ohio Legislature passed a law allowing concealed handguns in bars... I mean.. would could possibly go wrong with that?

Ohio is having a giant yard sale. If you need a prison or a hospital or a snow plow.. just contact Kasich... he can help you out.

5. Voted. Sure hope the word "recall' will be bandied about. nt

[AngryOldDem]

8. Sadly, no provision for that in Ohio.

But I wouldn't be surprised at a grassroots effort to change that.

[gateley]

11. Boy -- that just seems so WRONG. I sure hope they can change

that!

[AngryOldDem]

6. And didn't Ohio go into this with eyes wide open?

Kasich made no bones about what he wanted to do.

As a former Ohioan, I can't say "I told you so" to the voters. Many didn't vote for him, and are stuck with this a-hole.

But the old saying holds true: Careful what you wish for because you just. might. get. it.

Come on, Ohio -- you have no problem working casino gambling into the constitution. Now, how about a recall provision for state officials?

[OhioDoink]

10. The guy was my Rep. for a long time,a long time

He was a clown then and he now is an evil clown,like Pennywise.(of Stephen King fame):evilfrown:

[MedleyMisty]

12. Make him resign

Protest. Occupy the state capitol. Strike.

[HughBeaumont]

13. Cleveland.com. Of course it's going to be that way.

The Bundist teabirther suburbs of Cuyahoga, Summit, Lorain and Medina counties probably make up that 20%. That's usually the kind of whitebreads you see on their forums, Tetley bags fresh on their three-cornered hats . . .

What matters is how the rest of SlowHio justifies stickin' it to them thar Wall Street fellers whut ruint this 'conomy by . . . electing . . . one of them thar Wall Street fellers to fix shit?

I mean, you can say "what were they thinking" all you like, but something Ohio voters aren't known for doing (save the broken clock/twice a day votes of Sherrod Brown and Obama) is thinking. Mike DeWine. George Voinovich. Bob Taft. John Boehner. Rob Portman (BTW, where the hell IS that guy? Anyone know?). Ken Blackwell (resulting in, of course, two Failure Fuhrer terms).

[mod mom]

14. HE DOESN'T CARE! He'll do his damage in his 1st term then go back to the private sector

to reap more of the benefits of his actions. :mad:

[in_cog_ni_to]

17. 77% disapprove 18.61% approve. That won't matter to him. n/t

18. He Not Only Should Be Fired.................

............he should be fired......AT (or is the more correct verbiage, "fired UPON"?)

[Doctor_J]

19. What's the point of this poll?

Nothing can be done about him or his destruction of Ohio, so who cares?

[DavidDvorkin]

20. It's an online poll

It's meaningless.

[EnviroBat]

21. Oh b bb b but Kasich saved Diebold and American Greetings...

So he could continue the election theft process, and send us all "Go Get Fucked" cards. Meanwhile, the garbage-sack excuse for a politician kills the rail project in Ohio and wipes out 8000+ jobs before he even takes office. Some of the assholes posting on that poll sound like my stupid-ass RW father.
