Ohio governor predicts Romney win in key state title

Source: msnbc

Ohio's Republican governor said Sunday that private polls show Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney beating President Barack Obama in the all-important battleground state of Ohio just as auto industry politics assume a dominant role in the closing days of the campaign.

Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) predicted outright that Romney would win Ohio on "Meet the Press" and, with it, the presidential election — a overall contest which Kasich said wouldn't be that close.

37. Good point...

Kasich admitted that he was blindsided by the fact that more than 60% of Ohioans were opposed to his union busting SB2. Now he's talking like he's a freakin' Nostradamus.

Ohio, Florida and Wisconsin may very well go to Rmoney.

But that's a function of their governors, not the will of the people. They are playing a very dangerous game.

34. IRS Agents LOVE Tax Resisters

They don't have to do any work to catch them, and they can take them for everything they've got, or will ever have, by the time they're done adding on interest, penalties, interest on the interest, penalties on the penalties, etc.

There might be something we can do to push back against this sort of thing, but that ain't it.

They don't get your tax money until April, not during the regular year, since you have a lot of deductions. They get their money, just not until later.

22. I think the ..............(use the word that fits)

are setting us up for a steal.Early voting favors Obama..The Obama campaign have noted their polling shows hes ahead..But they want the public to believe that its tied so it wont look so obvious..I cannot believe this is happening here in the USA.We no longer have a Democracy..This stuff only happens in third World Countries..But wait..If this kind of Bullshit was happening in another country,the UN would be overseeing the election...
This is just like 2000 ...Flipped votes or stolen votes or provisional votes.,we are being set up for the steal.
Kasich is the most radical idiot Governor ever elected..He made unbelievable radical comments when he was on Faux and he is just another Repuke crazy..I put him in the same class as Sanunu

31. Robme has never led in Ohio and Obama has had a 2-5 pt lead since his mediocre 1st debate, and was

up 6-9 before that, but even though he was down to 1-2 about a week ago, his last debate TKO of Robme surely gained a point or two for Obama. If Ohio somehow flips to Robme, you can thank the guv... sleazy pig.

40. John Kasich has issues telling the truth

Been that way as long I've known about him. He lied in his campaign and has lied consistently once taking office.

OFA has a big ground game in Ohio, working very hard, including poll watchers and legal responders. The Obama ground game far surpasses Kerry's in 2004 and has been far more aggressive. Ohio also has early voting, which has been a big help. M$M and Kasich are continuing to spin, but I'm not sure it will work for the this time.
