McCain’s pro-Bush policies won’t fly in Ohio

Posted by Staff on July 8, 2008 |

Echoing Barack Obama’s recent attack on John McCain’s economic policy, Todd Book and Chillicothe Mayor Joe Sulzer agreed that a McCain White House would extend the failed Bush economics in southern Ohio.

On a conference call, Todd Book, Ohio State House Assistant Minority Leader, said he approved of Barack Obama’s $50 billion stimulus package for Ohio. McCain has ratified the Bush tax cut that provides breaks to the wealthiest 3 percent of Ohioans, Mayor Sulzer said. If McCain tries to distance himself from the Bush Administration during the general election, the people of Ohio will see through it, Book said.

Sen. Obama’s plan would provide tax cuts for families that earn less than $250,000 per year, Mayor Sulzer said. According to book, Gov. Ted Strickland (D-Ohio) will continue to actively support Obama during the general election as he did during the primary. The people of Ohio listen to Gov. Strickland, so his endorsement is crucial for Obama, Book said.
