... the rising Republican leader John Kasich declared on national television that "Gary Condit's one of my best friends in Congress, and he's one of the most conservative Democrats, and he's always helping us to cut taxes and to cut spending."
... Mr. Kasich, who once said, "Gary is a good guy, and you know at times friendship ought to transcend party labels."

They were in fact best of buddies. All indications are they traveled, partied and dined together regularly. So what were saying about me and DUers?
If you only state that the two were friends, then my comment wasn't directed at you. Perhaps you should read what I actually wrote.
“To link Mr. Kasich to Ms. Levy, or to Mr. Condit’s more sordid doings, without any evidence whatsoever, is what I'd expect from DUers.”
My posts on this thread were directed at posters who implicitly or explicitly tied Mr. Kasich to Ms. Levy, some by citing his friendship to Mr. Condit.
In fact, the first post to which I responded in this thread was:
“Nope. Two words: Chandra Levy. Two more words: Gary Condit.”
That is posting behavior I'd expect from DUers.
That Mr. Kasich and Mr. Condit were friends is a bit of a non-starter, in terms of opposing Mr. Kasich for high office. Unless someone also opposed Duncan Hunter because of his good friendship with Mr. Cunningham, a convicted felon late of prison for bribery.
