LEFT-LEANING LAWMAKER GARY CLARY DOES JOHN KASICH’S DIRTY WORK
Ohio governor John Kasich (a.k.a. “Medicaid Jesus“) has rolled out one of the most liberal members of the S.C. General Assembly to bash former Florida governor Jeb Bush‘s record on spending.
Gary Clary – a socially and fiscally liberal “Republican” lawmaker from Pickens County, S.C. – ripped Bush (and his brother) in a statement released by Kasich’s campaign.
“For a decade, John Kasich led the fight to balance the federal budget, got it done for the first time since man walked on the moon, but he handed it off to President George W. Bush who proceeded to increase federal spending by an astonishing 83 percent over his two terms,” Clary said. “Like his brother, former Governor Jeb Bush went on a spending spree that racked up massive debt and ballooned Florida’s budget. Clearly, John Kasich is the real fiscal conservative we need in the White House.”
Hmmm …
We’re not going to argue Clary’s point regarding Kasich’s budget hawkishness during his early career in Washington, D.C. Nor are we going to dispute his contention that both George W. Bush and Jeb Bush are big government “Republicans.”
The problem? Kasich has become a big government “Republican,” too.
“In the late 1980s and early 1990s, he was a real pro-freedom, pro-free market champion … but in recent years he’s become just another status quo Republican hack,” we wrote of Kasich a year ago.
Since then nothing’s changed … except the price tag for his excesses.
Anyway, according to the latest aggregate polling data from RealClearPolitics, GOP voters in South Carolina aren’t buying what Bush or Kasich are selling. Both are in the ten percent range … battle for fourth place behind frontrunner Donald Trump (37 percent), U.S. Senator Ted Cruz of Texas (17 percent) and U.S. Senator Marco Rubio of Florida (14.3 percent).

Looks just like that IRS asshole Kossican (sp) who runs Obummer’s corrupt IRS!
Yeah, he does resemble John Koskinen.
Koskinen wouldn’t even pull minimum wage if he work in the private sector.
Ohio must like him. Kasich had a 62% approval rating in October.
Fits resorts to 6th grade name calling again.
At least it isn’t overtly racist like calling Benjamin “mayorhood” though
Don’t go so hard on yourself, my friend.
You have to take in to account that Kasich is Governor of a predominantly blue state. He had more freedom in Congress.
Just another example of what I have been saying all along. We “underlings” work our collective butts off to elect conservatives . They go to Washington /Columbia , and can’t wait to move to the mushy middle as fast as possible. Then they wonder why we are not on board with them . What part of sell out don’t they understand ? The major reason why I am supporting Trump. Maybe, just maybe , a person who isn’t beholding to the money people will actually do something. We can only hope.
