House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) said Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) is undermining Mitt Romney’s message in the key battleground state, Roll Call reports.
Said Boehner: “One of the things that probably worked against Romney in Ohio is the fact that Gov. Kasich has done such a good job of fixing government regulations in the state, attracting new businesses to the state, so our unemployment rate in Ohio is lower than the national average.”
