Newly-elected Ohio Governor John Kasich wonders if former Governor Ted Strickland is tetched in the head

It works. Conservative government works. Of course, this news comes as no surprise to conservatives. Just ask Ohio Governor John Kasich.

In this short clip, the Ohio Republican explains how conservative principals turned his state’s record fiscal shortfall into a balanced budget while simultaneously cutting taxes.

Note to President Obama: Ohio’s credit rating was recently upgraded by Standard & Poor’s.

  • SARCASM alert!: It was all Obama's doing, really. Kasich had the stimulus that helped his state. THAT is what it was... Not drawing down spending, etc. **rolls eyes**

  • If John Kasich does bring back Ohio jobs, education and gets rid of medicaid more power to him, period.
    However, I wouldn't be bragging about a Standard and Poor's upgrade: S&P upgraded Enron credit to AAA, gave garbage CDO's and CMO's AAA status and essentially hosed the world. I'm cool with Kasich...S&P sucks schlong.

  • I loved John Kasich as a Congressman when I lived in Ohio. I am so glad to see him straightening out my former homestate.
