<snip>
Former Rep. John Kasich disclosed his 2008 tax returns Friday, revealing he'd received $182,692 in salary and $432,200 in bonus cash from Lehman Brothers in 2008, bringing his income to 614,892. The Republican challenger to Gov. Ted Strickland said he received no "golden parachute" from the failed bank, asserting that his bonus was for work in 2007 and he did not receive a bonus for his work in 2008. His tax returns showed he also received $265,000 as a Fox News contributor, putting his gross income for the year at more than $1.38 million.

Nice to see he was working with the firm that triggered the largest financial collapse ever known.

the rest of them. Not that it makes him any less a bloviating imbecile with a dead weasel on his head, but he has no stake in the institutional Repig party, so why not watch it burn?

It's time to bring it home, Mr. Trump.

Kasich and Bush are SUPREMELY vulnerable on Lehman.



Great catch, malaise!

Especially since some apparent "funny business" showed up in the GOP polling over the weekend.... people are noticing.

Karl Rove and friends trying to manipulate opinion before this debate?


This poll just came out today, from Economist/YouGov, again showing Trump leading nationally.


Methinks the GOP Establishment is freaking out.

Let's assist.

And we union members went to parking lots (fire-stations) and signed
petitions and he backed down right now. Oh, he is still anti-union
but he pulled a Hillary and changed his tune and got re-elected.
