Republican heavy weights to Ohio
(CNN) - Big Republicans are coming out for Ohio Republican gubernatorial candidate John Kasich next week. Governors Haley Barbour of Mississippi, Chris Christie of New Jersey and Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota will headline a rally on October 29.
The three governors are also considered potential 2012 presidential candidates. Another possible 2012 candidate, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, will campaign for Kasich next Tuesday.
Obama will visit the state on October 31.
Kasich is running to unseat incumbent Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland.

It still doesn't work because all of those guy are the party of big "NO" and "NO".
Ohio will go Republican. The people of Ohio know that Obama's job killing agenda has created their suffering and will reject Democrats in November.
How insensitive of CNN to call Christie and Barbour heavy weights. Just because they have to pay for two seats on an airplane? Newt is the worst person (next to Bush or Cheney) to campaign in Ohio, as his fascist ideas will really hurt the baggers.
I don't see why Republicans are bothering, those people are happy with what they've got which is no jobs, I guess they enjoy being lazy and hoping for a government check to get by in life. Must be since they are voting in the same group of people that are there now.
Hopefully the earth will open up, and swallow them all. But that would turn Ohio into a hazardous waste dump, and no one wants that to happen.
That's right – October 29 will be FORGOTTEN in two days when President Obama comes back and put the ICING on the CAKE!!!
On the 30th, I will be at the "Rally to Restore Sanity" in DC and that would be another event to get us FIRED UP!!!!!
This is T'SAH from Virginia and I approve this message!!!
John Kasich is a Wall St frontman and a Foxs News hack. Young, old, white, black, brown , yellow,red and green need get out the vote to stop this clown. Or you state will become Foxs News and Wall St new headquaters!
Are these big Republicans going say the same thing that all Republicans are saying ? Will it be the same old tear Obama down but have no answers to solve problems ? Are they going to spew hate towards Obama because the entire world is in a resession that just won't end fast enough ? I am sure it will be the same old lecture about how Republicans should be given back the keys to the country so they can screw the middle class all over again and take everything good that has come in the past two years and tear it apart so they can finish off the destruction they started with the Bush/Cheney years
thank God, I'm voting for anything other than a "D" before their name ! Obama and company are done !
That's happening because Democrats are leading in early voting in that state!
John Kasich is a class gentleman and deserves to win.
If people don't know who John Bohener is, what chance dop these guys have outside of the GOP faithful? Seriously, no one knows these guys. Good luck with that.
I'll say those are big Republicans. If you are what you eat, they've been living on expensive pork mixed with the fat of the land.
Please, let's have the Palin,Gingrich ticket. Get that shrill, smarty pants mouth going and that egotistical lowlife in tow and we will have a ball
When he was a congressman he never really took anything seriously. He just seemed to be along for the ride. I can't imagine why he wants to be governor where things will be much more challenging.
Go John Kasich!!! More Freedom for Ohio!!
Christie and Barbour are definitely heavy weights!!
oh great all these clowns are thinking of running for president. Newt is a real jerk who can't keep it in his pants. The other three scumbags are a bunch or tea baggers. Wake up american vote all the repos out in November
"Heavy weights" implies that Republicans are sending their 135-pound dumbbells and 90-pound add-on plates to a gyms for their workouts.
A "heavyweight" sent to Ohio would be Bill Clinton or Hillary Clinton on a mission to campaign for Barack Obama.
Send in the clowns . . . . don't bother they here!!! What a group of losers and bozos!! 🙂 🙂
Why does Kasich need those folks when he's got GOP-FOX PAC – the all propaganda channel.
