Reasonable moderate John Kasich has a reasonable, moderate view on whether Washington DC residents should have any political representation in the nation’s government

His reasonable moderate view is that no, they shouldn’t, because that would give too many votes to black people Democrats.
When asked his position on D.C. voting rights, Republican presidential contender John Kasich didn’t pretend to draw on any constitutional clause or existing law to explain his stance against it.
Instead, the Ohio governor stated the political reason that many already perceive as the biggest obstacle standing between D.C. and congressional voting representation: Giving D.C. voting representatives in Congress would mean more Democrats in Congress.
“What it really gets down to if you want to be honest is because they know that’s just more votes in the Democratic Party,” Kasich said Wednesday during an interview with The Washington Post editorial board.
Under the circumstances, maybe Kasich ought to consider a little dishonesty. I mean these guys aren’t even trying any more.
I half-expect Zombie David Broder to claw his way out of his unquiet grave to praise Kasich as the moderate choice that America is tragically overlooking.
