Another Reason to Vote for Kasich

He promises to kill the 3C Snail Rail Boondoggle!

"I don't support a 39 mph train, OK? It's not going to happen if I'm governor, OK?" Kasich said to reporters gathered for the occasion, according to published reports. "If you want the train, I hope you can get over that and vote for me anyway. But you're not going to get that train. It's a white elephant, we can't afford it, we can't pay for it. And who's riding it?"

U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood says that the 3C Snail Rail Boondoggle is a good idea for Ohio because the number of freeloaders riding other inter-city choo-choos has increased a little bit recently. Just like Ohio's train, these others also lose more money per ticket than passengers pay. LaHood fails to grasp that the last thing you want when selling at a loss is more customers.

Thankfully, Kasich gets it. We need a governor who will stop wasting our money.

  1. It's funny you guys have the gaul to call anyone a freeloaded when you're lead by Mark Miller who has been freeloading his poor soon off St. Xavier the past year.

  2. I like the idea of the train, just not their plan. I don't think Dayton should be part of it. Have a Dayton spur that goes from Dayton to Columbus and Dayton to Cincy.

    Make it so I can hop on the train in Cincy, hit a Browns or Indians game and then be back in Cincy by 9 or 10 pm.

  3. yeah, freeloaders. What do you call the highway system? It is increasingly being paid for by non-users. I guess we can call all drivers freeloaders. Good logic.

  4. Rail freaks -
    Get over it. Kasich will be killing your money draining choo-choo after November. Good thing you'll be able to ride around in circles on the Cincinnati trolley. Haha.
