Nick D - Posted on 01 December 2011Remember when John Kasich promised that his administration would move at the speed of business? Remember when he raked Ted Strickland over the coals repeatedly about NCR leaving for Atlanta?

I don't think anyone is going to be too confused about what is hard news, what is soft news, what is editorial, what is blog content, and whatever else just because the account is called "News".
