OH governor Kasich to much of a bleeding heart for Koch Bros

This story is ridiculous... link:
Kasich?s temper has made it harder to endear himself to the GOP?s wealthy benefactors. Last year, he traveled to Southern California to appear on a panel at a conference sponsored by the Republican mega-donors Charles and David Koch. At one point, according to accounts provided by two sources present, Randy Kendrick, a major contributor and the wife of Ken Kendrick, the owner of the Arizona Diamondbacks, rose to say she disagreed with Kasich?s decision to expand Medicaid coverage, and questioned why he?d expressed the view it was what God wanted.

The governor?s response was fiery. ?I don?t know about you, lady,? he said as he pointed at Kendrick, his voice rising. ?But when I get to the pearly gates, I?m going to have an answer for what I?ve done for the poor.?

The exchange left many stunned. About 20 audience members walked out of the room, and two governors also on the panel, Nikki Haley of South Carolina and Bobby Jindal of Louisiana, told Kasich they disagreed with him. The Ohio governor has not been invited back to a Koch seminar ? opportunities for presidential aspirants to mingle with the party?s rich and powerful ? in the months since.
How dare you show concern for the poors! Communist!
 
I thought that Kasich would eventually declare, but not after daring to say the "S" word!!

As far as Nimrata Randhawa and Piyush Jindahl, why did they feel that it was necessary to disguise their real names with pseudonyms?
