Interesting that you feel that way about politics being a team sport and Kasich not being a team player and his being about himself. Do you feel that way about Trump?
Of course its a Team Sport -- why do you think they have Political Parties? It's the "Team".
Now - it's true that all teams can have weakness, jealousy or even total self interest, BUT it's also true that no ONE man (or woman) can stand alone with no "team" support and get anything done.
It doesn't matter if a Team has the Greatest Quarterback and Best Stadium in the entire history of the sport ...... if their is no one who can catch/pass/run with the ball - They Lose.
As for Trump - he is a great quarterback and a Team Player ..... why do you think he is doing all these Mid-Term Campaign Rallies .. he needs more people, better people - on his Team.
Why do you think President Trump does weekly roundtables and weekly meetings with CongressCritters and Business Leaders, Spiritual Leaders, Civic Leaders, Law Enforcement Leaders? He wants them on his Team. Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, SOS Pompeo, SOD Mattis and tons of CongressCritters say President Trump calls them DAILY. They are on his "team". Doesn't mean that all the members of his team like him, but that's the case with any large team
To win more -- Get more and better people on the Team. That's the Trump Way
.... it's the way of all winners.
No excuse for the Hollywood rich & famous calling ordinary Americans names for exercising their right to vote how they see fit.
Hollywood is trying to meddle in the Election. Where's the outrage over that? Of course Democrats are silent over that one. They are trying to figure out how to bring in the Russians.
In case you weren't aware, Hollywood is part of the United States. Russia isn't. Accusing Hollywood of "meddling" in US elections is no different than accusing US corporations or US labor unions of "meddling" in US elections - they are just another perfectly legitimate US special interest.
The dems seem to be blaming the Green Party for this loss. Some of the kooks are even suggesting it was the Russians... again.
If the Dems think the Green Party "stole" the election from them -- they missed 2nd grade Math.
Add Green Party votes to Democrat votes and the total is still less than the Republican votes.
Listen to any of the Leftists and they will carefully point out that Up is Down and a LOSS is really a WIN.
They have spun themselves DIZZY - part of the problem for the Leftists is that they only have a few cards in their deck & they are pretty tattered. They need a NEW playbook rather than RUSSIA-RUSSIA, which could be why they are flocking to the Socialists.

With Manafort about to be convicted of massive bank and tax fraud, the indictment of Rep. Collins for insider trading, plea deals for Flynn, Papadopolous, Gates, etc., etc., maybe Trump can go recruit people from white collar prisons. Bernie Madoff is still kickin', he'd fit right in with the Trump den of thieves.

They also think the Russians caused the Democrat candidate to lose, so those particular democrat voters are not playing with a full deck.
So did Obama, but you did not see the results of that presidential race have any impact on Tiberi, who held that seat from 2001-2018
So no, I do not agree with you that presidential races impact the voting results in the 12th district.
The district became more Republican in 2012 following redistricting. Obama did win the district (under the old lines) in 2008, the current district went to Romney and Trump by 11. McCain won the district under its current lines by 9 points. This is a Republican district.
