You're right, RoyH, because Obama was in office back in 2006 and 2008. McCain beat Obama in the 6th district, and the Republican going against Wilson didn't even campaign. Thus, once Obama got elected, there were many Democrats who couldn't handle the idea of having a black guy in office. If I have to explain all of this to you, it's because you choose not be knowledgeable.
Did you not pay any attention in the past? I'd suggest you start writing things down if you're incapable of remembering things chronologically.
Yeah, starting out at the bottom and working his way up...what a terrible political narrative for someone running in a blue-collar district!
I have no idea this guy's attributes, but considering Johnson's career in the chair force, then using his connections to get porkbarrel contracts for his private contractor, I'd say it's been awhile since any "real world" experience has been present in the 6th district.
If I were Johnson I'd be wary of anyone who actually has ties to the district and hasn't alienated others like Wilson did. But let's be really honest here, the only reason Johnson was elected was because the population of the 6th district really hates black people. and that was their only way to show their displeasure. That's the only reason, if Hillary had won, Wilson would've been reelected in 2010.
Ha Ha, no that's OK. I've never called anyone out to announce their identity, but I've seen you do so several times on here.
As for your gomarcellus offer, if you think I'd actually spend my time discussing anything with you, you're mistaken. You had me fooled when you first started posted on vindy, I actually thought you were a landman of some sorts, then I started to see the same writing style and self-aggrandizement on gomarcellus. The fact that you'd pride yourself on the basis of writing absurd rants on a forum, and the fact that you actually think you speak for the "landowners", says more about your own failings in life than it does about your imaginary success.
Ask yourself, what has been the reaction of some of the towns that you tried to get them to agree to let you represent them in negotiations? Which land-groups ever asked you to help advise them? Why is it that other local leaders were able to get hundreds of landowners to follow them, but you can't get anyone but some idiot who calls himself "Fang" to even reply to your posts?
Utica, don't ever consider yourself a "producer" because you're as far away from a productive member of society as one can get. Given your past legal problems and ridiculous business attempts, you're in no position to be denouncing others as "takers". Plus, you're not some important person when it comes to the O&G situation. You're not a major landowner, and other than the gomarcellus site, you weren't involved in any of the large negotiations that I'm aware of.
Why don't you give your actual identity? You call out others for what they should do, but why don't you turn that on yourself. Many people would recognize your name, but I doubt many would take anything you say seriously once they knew who you really are.
Please, Vindicator, do an expose on Whitehat Management out of Akron. Look at the campaign contributions and the amounts that Whitehat has spent. You don't spend that amount of money without some expected ROI.
You'll see exactly why Kasich supports for-profit charter schools to the detriment of public education.
The stories I heard when I'd have lunch with some guys in Salem wasn't that people disliked him because he had new ideas that ruffled feathers. From what they said, he didn't do much of anything, and you could find him at McDonald's during the day while his secretary did all the athletic scheduling. That's why I thought it was funny to read that he has no short-term plans for Poland schools, since I remembered hearing that he never had any apparent plans while at Salem either.
Jesus, did nobody in Poland ask the people down in Salem before they did this? I don't even live down there, but just the little time that I've gone to Salem for business I heard about him when he was an athletic director. I can't say whether it was accurate info or not, but the school got rid of him.
I'm just surprised that Poland never called Salem, because if they heard what I've heard over the years, there's no way you'd want this guy at your school.
My pet peeve is when someone tries to sound smart, but then doesn't actually know the definition of the word they used.
Maybe I should reiterate this point, and suggest a dictionary for the term "iterate", which means to repeat a process or movement. What it doesn't mean is to repeat a phrase, saying, or remark.
I can't believe I'm agreeing with Uticashale on something. I just read this writer for the first time, and I'm ashamed that someone as spoiled as this is even given an article spot.
As for "what kind of moron...", I'd ask what kind of moron would feed their kids fast food to begin with. And to answer her question about how hard the job is, that's easy. Take your unemployed self, and apply for a job at Burger King, and learn first-hand.
I find no difference between people like her who squirt out a few kids, then thinks she can spend the rest of her time unemployed, than I do the ghetto rats who do the same.
I find it infuriating that this tax-deduction masquerading as a contributing member of society would find editorial space even in a newspaper like the Vindicator.

Officials: About a dozen stabbed at Texas college
A more intelligent person that Sknirak would have also noted that NOBODY died.
If anything, the attacker should've used a gun if he wanted to do any real damage.
