You’re right about us not having the income tax and a reasonable sales tax. In fact, that is why many millionaires keep their primary residence here even though they spend most of their time in other states, such as California. Tiger Woods would be a good example.
In the Baraqqis view, it will be Bush's fault FOREVER. Hopefully in the voter's view, by 2010.

But, but, but...Sherrod Brown and Ted Strickland ran in 2006 almost exclusively on a platform of bringing jobs back to Ohio...you can’t possibly mean they lied. Why, the next thing you know, you’ll be suggesting that Obama isn’t for the common man and reforming the system. (Of course they lied, they’re Dems, aren’t they?)
Don’t blame Ohioians too much. Obama pimped ACORN and the SOS there for the win.
Does this help Kasich and the GOP in general in the state or will it always be ‘Bush’s fault’?
Bellwether. A wether is a neutered ram; tie a bell around his neck, and the flock follows him. Hence, a bellwether is a leading indicator. Meteorology is not involved.
And the Ohio CAT tax implememnted last year on business grossing over $150k.
You are part time compared to us. We in Michigan are at 15%. Jenny is Blowing Us Away! For sure.
This is such a business-unfriendly state. Taxes are compounded by restrictions are compounded by a questionable labor force.
When uber-liberal Obama and uber-liberal Strickland can’t talk liberal GM and Ford into staying in this state, then something is bad wrong here.
Strickland’s Plan:
1. Slot machines.
2. Tax increases.
3. More money spent on education (read: local tax increases)
The guy is an ObamaBot, and his puppet master and he don’t have a clue.
I really don’t know what to say.
‘bammy TOLD THEM he was going to bankrupt their main industry - coal,
and they still went blue.
Guess they got to “make history” and “vote for the cool black guy”. That and a dollar might get you something to eat.
Exactly (NOT SARCASM), just like the similar plans of his communist soul brothers Lenin, in the Soviet Union, and Mugabe, in Zimbabwe, worked. He's an American and America hating communist and secret Mudslime. What else could be expected from him? His so-called "Czars" are actually commissars, modeled closely after the same kind of officials in the old Soviet Union, who were established in offices parallel to the regular government offices to supervise the regular government offices and keep them true to the party line.
Cool. Thanks.
I am originally from Ohio and we had people on here saying Strickland wasn’t so bad. Bet me — he is a Dem.
A recession is when your neighbor is out of work.
A depression is when you are out of work.
A recovery is when Obama is out of work.
Wait until the democrats create a 20% unemployment!
Allen County [Ohio] commissioners want to increase taxes, which is upsetting a lot of people. When things are bad, the first thing politicians do is make them worse for those who are working. The other day, a guy came to my home and asked to do yard work. I was just on my way out to buy new hedge trimmers, and decided to give him the money instead. He did a good job, and I felt so bad for him. I had been in his position a time or two, but it's worse now, because it's lingering and getting worse with each day democrats are in office. Now is the time to speak out against Obama and Pelosi's gang, and while we are at it, those of us who can afford to, let some laid off worker mow the lawn, or something. This is a good time to help each other, because the government sure isn't doing a good job of it.
same as MN with Al Franken.
Norm Coleman was 1000 votes ahead of Franken Beans before the recount(s).
