Run, John, Run.

Well, all reports from yesterday's tea party in Columbus are that it was a rousing success. And it's no surprise that it was Kasich who won the most applause.

Among the politicians, Kasich drew the loudest cheers and chants of "Run, John, run!" He struck a populist tone, noting his own roots as the son of a mailman.

"The next generation better than this generation: We'll fight for it, won't we?" he asked to applause. "We know what the winning formula is. The winning formula is low taxes."

WBNS in Columbus did a great job covering the event. You can see the video here.

By the way, the next liberal I hear that uses the all-too-unoriginal 'teabagging' joke gets a punch in the mouth.
