6. The GOP 2016 primaries will be the battle of the Ohio finanacial titans, the Wolfes vs the Lindners.

Either candidate will be do whatever the Koch brothers want. However, the Wolfe family has promised the POTUS to John Kasich(R) governor of Ohio, running for re-election this fall. The Lindners own Sen. Rob Portman(R) Ohio body and soul. It will be very interesting to see which of these men end up the GOP nominee in 2016. All the rest of the GOP field really is a clown show, but the national media considers these two men as "serious" and completely ignore their massive corruption.

The national Democratic Party, for the last 40 years, has not taken Ohio politics seriously. The national elections have been negatively impacted by GOP governors and SOS much more often than the 2000 and 2004 elections. Ohio has been taken over by the most vile and corrupt thugs the GOP could dredge up. Our state resources are being given away by this current bunch of crooks at rates that should get national attention, but is being completely ignored.
