Hillary And The Buckeye State

If you're a registered voter in Ohio you might want to pay attention to this quote.

But its Rust Belt profile, Mr. Trump’s unyielding anti-trade campaign and Mrs. Clinton’s difficulty energizing Ohio’s young voters have made it a lesser focus for Democrats this year, even as it remains critical to Mr. Trump’s path to the White House. As Mrs. Clinton’s aides privately note, the demographic makeup of Florida, Colorado and North Carolina, which have a greater percentage of educated or nonwhite voters, makes those states more promising for Democrats in a contest in which the electorate is sorted along bright racial and economic lines.

Well, we know there are a bunch of stupid oafs, dolts and uneducated white folks living in Ohio and its colleges and universities are sub par to put it mildly. The only problem is Clinton's campaign people either can't or more likely spend too much time reading bathroom graffiti and missed the October 2016 issue of Money  magazine and its article where these two apparently ignoramus brothers moved their successful business to Columbus. Here's the quote from the article: "The 6 top Big Cities."

When brothers Andy and Phil George decided to find a permanent home for their then flediing business in 2012, Columbus was a no brainer. It was just the low cost  of living vs. Los Angeles, where they launched the business or the dozen-plus Fortune 1,000 firms in town, or the resources of The Ohio Stater University. It was the promise of a city on the rise. "We felt there ws a lot of positive momentum," Andy George, cofounder of startup MentorcilQ, which helps launch and manage employee mentoring programs.

You sure could say that. In the past five years more than 150 companies have moved to the area, drawn by a highly educated workforce--the region has more than 60 college and university campuses--and a solid business base that includes major retailers L Brands and Ambercrombie & Finch. In 2015 the city saw the highest wage growth in the country, with average hourly wages shooting up 6.2%,far exceeding the national average rate of around 2% and surpassing even such go-go burgs as San Francsico (6%).
