The Incomplete Bio

As I was checking around the net, I noticed that Republican John Kasich has an incomplete biography on his website. Kasich is a GOP candidate for Ohio governor. It seems that Kasich left out a few details about what he has been doing for the last few years. Kasich did not mention that he worked for Lehman Brothers. Lehman Brothers. Let me remind you what happened to Lehman Brothers---

CNBC.com (September 15, 2008):

Lehman Brothers, which filed for bankruptcy Sunday to became the largest casualty of the global credit crisis, is in advanced talks to sell its investment management business, including the crown jewel, Neuberger Berman....
.... [LEH 1.09 --- UNCH (0) ] is the biggest investment bank to collapse since 1990....

Forbes has this:

....Mr. Kasich has been Managing Director of the Investment Banking Group of Lehman Brothers Holdings Incorporated, in Columbus, Ohio, since January 2001....

Kasich was the Managing Director of Lehman Brothers Investment Banking Group. Wow. After leaving Lehman Brothers he wants to run Ohio?????
