John Kasich isn’t the first governor to push for a restructuring of the Ohio Board of Education, and he won’t be the last.

If that sounds like an argument for Jeb Bush, think again.
That’s according to a new poll by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, released Thursday and capturing voter sentiment since the Republican presidential debate earlier this month. They are largely competing for the same voters, and in Peterborough it was easy to see the big opening Bush has left for Kasich. To his fellow teachers, he said, “I’m not the villain, and you’re not the villain”. The article failed to mention her disagreement with Kasich over his education policies aimed at the poor, Cropper said.
“In Pennsylvania and Florida, more than half the voters don’t know enough about Kasich to have an opinion about him”.
Kasich is no fresh face. “We’ve got to be careful with the way in which we use our rhetoric”, the former chairman of the House Budget Committee said. This is a departure from precedent, because the previous governor of Ohio, Ted Strickland, had issued an executive order during his tenure that protected state employees from discrimination on the basis of both sexual orientation and gender identity.
He slashed taxes like Scott and Walker, but he also embraced expanding Medicaid coverage through the Affordable Care Act, something roundly denounced by the rest of the GOP presidential field.
And now Christie is facing a new threat: Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who’s campaign is on the rise nationally and in New Hampshire, where Christie has staked his Oval Office aspirations.
“No we’re not out to take their job”. He has also dropped to third in socially conservative Iowa, supposedly his ideal demographic. “They’re not mutually exclusive”.
Do you think that they would be – either would be electable against a Democrat supporting abortion with no exceptions? Marco Rubio in all three. Kasich has since commented publicly that he respects voters’ decision in that case and even praised Cleveland’s local American Federation of Teachers head who, according to WCPO media partner the Washington Post, is a Clinton supporter but, among the Republican candidates, favors Kasich. So-called opposition research is a staple of most campaigns, but it is telling that Kasich is now under the Bush team’s microscope.
“Hillary Clinton’s poll numbers are like a leaky faucet – drip, drip, drip”, Mr. Brown said.
“John Kasich is open, he’s very straight-forward, very plain-spoken and he likes the give and take of town halls”.
Political Analyst Dr. Tom Sutton said Kasich is where he needs to be.
“I prefer John Kasich“. This time around, he’s ready. In a sense, he’s like the state of Ohio: it’s there. “I’ve got tire marks on my forehead”.
Kasich manages only 3 percent in each of those states. He is not anxious, happy to be underestimated. “The privately operated, publicly funded schools and those who oversee them could get in excess of $1 billion in tax dollars by 2017”, Dispatch reporter Catherine Candisky writes.
