It's clear enough that there was substantial fraud in Ohio, thus delivering the Electoral College vote for President Bush.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The failure in Ohio to have adequate voting capacity for the people who were registered and eligible to vote was an absolute denial of their right to vote.
Ohio chose the president in 2000 and 2004. The independent voters, the so-called swing voters, are the ones who make the difference.
After immersing myself in the mysteries of the Electoral College for a novel I wrote in the '90s, I came away believing that the case for scrapping it is less obvious than I originally thought.
Before being elected to Congress, I was a mayor, and it's this perspective that makes me certain that Ed FitzGerald is the right kind of leader to get Ohio back on track.
President Obama did something that no Democrat's done since Franklin Roosevelt: that is, get a majority vote in Ohio twice. So I don't really buy that his policy is that unpopular.
John Kasich is the most popular elected official in Ohio because he got things done.
I mean, the fact of the matter is, Ohio 's coming back because we set a clear path, we cut taxes, we balanced our budget, we got credit upgrades when the whole rest of the world, including America, was being downgraded.
I don't think Bush was legitimately elected President.
Most people don't understand the Electoral College; they don't know why it exists.
Ohio claims they are due a president as they haven't had one since Taft. Look at the United States, they have not had one since Lincoln.
