John Kasich is one of several stalking horses deployed by the DNC/RNC for Bush.

Kasich is an open borders lib and a gun grabber.

The Cheap Labor Express Candidates:

¡Yeb!
Rubberio
La Raza Rick Perry
Grahamnesty
NJFatBoy
Huckster
Kasich
Pataki
Fiorina

All of these people admit they are unwilling to uphold the rule of law and will surrender the country to fraudulently documented foreigners.

Do not vote for them unless you like the invasion/colonization/cheap labor importation.

I would NEVER go to a “gay” “wedding”!!!!

That does NOT make me a mean person. It just means that I realize that same-sex “marriage” is NOT “marriage”!!!! I will not attend or give my assent to a FARCE such as a “gay” “wedding”!!!! Nor would ANYONE expect me to do so!!!!

Moreover, if I ever become so brainwashed as to attend a “gay” “wedding”, I would need to RUN to Holy Confession, if I at all intended to come to Holy Communion anytime afterwards!!!!

God’s Law—and His Love such as shown in Orthodox Holy Communion—trumps the Supreme Court—every single time!!!!

“Kasich is the Jon Huntsman of 2016.”

Good observation. He indeed is. Fox, is in love with him, next to Bush.

He’s a contender, for me to place at the very bottom spot of all 17 Republicans.

Ohio Governor John Kasich has become the darling of the liberal media for his “touching response” to a question about same-­sex marriage (as well as his “stirring defense” of accepting Obamacare Medicaid expansion money)

And because he's Plan B if the GOPe can't revive Bush.

I just heard an audio clip of Bush’s stump speech in Iowa today. He was criticizing Obama for this or that, and then claimed, “and that’s why nothing ever gets done!”

Excuse me, Yeb Arbusto! Where have you been for the last six years? Obama is arguably one of the most successful presidents in history in terms of “getting stuff done.” It might not be good stuff, but Obama’s enacted almost everything he’s wanted to. My life has been “fundamentally transformed,” and for the most part in a most horrific way.

So go away, Yeb Arbusto! Nothing done, my a$$. You obviously don’t have a clue what hell has been inflicted on the citizenry.

Asked by Megyn Kelly, “if you had a son or daughter who was gay or lesbian, how would you explain to them your opposition to same-­sex marriage?” Kasich replied:

What I would have said (if I wanted to deal with harassment and possibly violence from the gay mafia):

It's very simple. For reasons that take a great deal of time and thoughtful consideration to understand, God gives each of us some desires that follow His revealed Word and others that oppose scripture. We all face temptations. When our desires are in conflict with God's Word, I hope that we, as Christians, will do our best to defer to God. This is not just because it's in the Bible. Just as important, it is because God's wisdom inspired the Bible; we are better off following God's perfect guidance than yielding to our often flawed desires.

In my own life, whenever my urges are in conflict with scripture, I do my best to resist those urges and to follow God's word. There are times when I understand completely why God's Word is better for me, and others when I defer to the Bible out of faith, wondering how and why that is the right decision. As infrequently as I can manage, there are times when I ignore God's Word. Those times are often educational experiences, ending with a self-deprecating laugh and "oh, now I see why!" In my arrogance, I occasionally choose to ignore God's Will, and in my humility, I find myself learning from those mistakes. As often as I think the lesson will be positive, I explain what I have done to my kids so they can learn from my mistakes, or perhaps from their own on the first try instead of being slower learners like I have sometimes been.

Moving from the general to the particular, gay "marriage" has only a minimal connection to real marriage and cannot be treated like a real marriage in the lives of Christians. The Bible is completely clear on homosexual acts. The dictionary definition of marriage, until changed for political reasons in the last few years, read something to the effect of "the legally or formally recognized union of a man and a woman". Calling something else a marriage does not give the new invention the same moral and spiritual value as a real marriage, and social science has demonstrated that gay couples, particularly gay men, do not see their version of "marriage" in the same way that normal people view real marriages.

I imagine that Megyn Kelly would have a heart attack or a stroke long before I finished. But if my child claimed to be gay, I would treat that statement the same as if my son claimed to be tempted to cheat on his wife, or my daughter claimed to be a kleptomaniac or in some other direction opposed to scripture. I would hope I had raised my child well enough to put God's Will ahead of personal desires. Perhaps that would mean they would devote their lives to other priorities, without romantic love. I'm okay with that small price, in my own life or in my child's. I'm not okay with ignoring God's Word - the price is far too high.

He’s as close to being a Hillary Clinton Clone that the democrats have any chance of electing.

RE: How did you know his father was a mailman?

Maybe his father told him? Or maybe his mother did?
Or his Uncle? Or father’s friend?

Yeah, that wears thin fast. Much like Kerry’s “I served in Vietnam.”

no, Kasich will finish in the top tier in NH and could very well win ... just as Lamar came within 5% in ‘96. The McCain voters ... Huntsman voters in CD#2 ... Kasich looks to win several counties.

This is bad news for Christie who doesn’t fit the model for this type of voter. But where does Kasich go from there?
