John Kasich Caught on Tape: 'I Work on Wall Street'

Since the start of his campaign, Congressman John Kasich has sought to downplay his eight years at Lehman Brothers, describing his role as managing director of the firm as "running" "a two-man office in Columbus, Ohio."

Well, we've unearthed footage of a very different John Kasich from two years ago. I think you'll be surprised by the difference two years can make:

Certainly, Congressman Kasich owes the voters of Ohio at least as much disclosure in 2010 as he offered the viewers of FOX News in 2008. As a candidate for Governor, Kasich should be forthcoming about his time on Wall Street, and we will continue to hold him accountable for trying to have it both ways.

That's not all that was caught on tape.

Ohio voters need to know the truth about John Kasich’s views on education, which he shows extremely poor judgment about and remains silent about as revealed on the Internet web site http://NotKasich.com.

We no longer support John Kasich and neither will the vast majority of Ohioans after they learn the truth about the kind of school that John Kasich DOES support, pays money to, and actually sends his very own daughters to.

The truth is that John Kasich clearly does NOT have the courage, integrity, leadership qualities, or the common sense needed to be a suitable Governor for Ohio.

John Kasich, the Republican from Wall Street.

What you do in the dark eventually comes out in the light. Especially now with the internet and the multiple media sources scouring the backgrounds of every pol. I dont know why ANYONE would want to be an elected official. Talking about a thankless profession!

Strickland is not an idiot, he's been able to navigate the mess that flaming corrupt idiot Taft and the highly corrupt state GOP reps left for him. Gotta love that Bob Ney who essentially devastated the BWC pension funds with his phony investment scams. The Ohio GOP destroyed this state...20 years of highly corrupt one party rule that resembled the former Soviet Union.

Kasich is just another dangerous corrupt GOP creep. I will work my @ss off for Strickland to make sure Kasich gets nowhere near the governor's mansion.

As I will work for Kasich. ted has done nothing. no jobs, no nothing.

Why did you leave out mark dann????? or the corruption in the current administration apparent by tipping off a suspect to avoid a drug sting AT the governor's mansion? hmmmm..

Why did you leave those out?

No argument with me about taft, never liked the guy, but ted's got to go.
