And John Kasich on the Republican side... Agschmid Aug 2015 #6

I think in the GE Kasich would be a tough opponent. Agschmid Aug 2015 #8

I think the opposite is true. He won't get much Repubican support. So he'll be depending sabrina 1 Aug 2015 #28

Republicans would definitely vote for Kasich. Garrett78 Aug 2015 #69
