If I lived there, I’d vote for him.

An honest Ohio governor? Will wonders never cease?

[Two Kids' Dad]

I’ve always thought of Kasich as being a good guy, but maybe a bit squishy on some subjects. I don’t think I know enough about him to make a rock-solid statement of support or criticism. Any Freepers have some solid opinions about him?

[Drango]

I like Kasich.

[deport]

Kasich has not yet officially announced his plans to challenge Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland in 2010.

---

Is Kasich getting the horse ahead of the wagon? Doesn’t he have a primary to win first before being able to do as he says?

[PGalt]

He’s too soft for me, but a RINO (boy are those IDIOTS disgusting) is 1,000,000,0000 times better than a marxist/progressive/socialist/control-freak rat commie ANY day.

Hooray John Kasich!

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

I thought from the similar name,
this was about Dennis Kucinich.

[PubliusMM]

Outstanding! At last, someone to vote FOR.

[GloriaJane]

If John Kasich runs for Gov. of Ohio he’s got my vote!

John Kasich’s a good man. An honest conservative and he’d have my vote for any office he wanted to run for.

[TWfromTEXAS]

He must not be too bad, we went 11 posts before he was called a RINO.

[bballbob]

I voted for him for President in the 2000 primary. Wish I lived in Ohio, just to vote for him. I probably will contribute to his campaign.

[BallyBill]

I always thought he'd be President some day. I had sorta given up on that a few years back.

[popdonnelly]

Good for Kasich. I’ll pray for him, because he’s going to get trashed by the “news media” from here on out.

[blackminorca]

I dont know why this great man has not risen to higher levels already.

[sthguard]

I think Kasich lives in one of the Columbus suburbs, so I’ll probably work for his campaign as well. There was another good conservative candidate (Seth Morgan) who got elected to the Statehouse in November, so I hope this is an indicator of a return to conservatism in the state. John Kasich spoke at the Columbus Tea Party, IIRC, and was very well-received there (except by the anarcho-libertarians who tried to shout down anyone who had held public office).

[MadelineZapeezda]

He’s from The Rocks of Pittsburgh originally....McKeesRocks!!!!

[cruise_missile]

Maybe he’ll run for the presidency.

He seems to be a good man.

Played a big part for the balanced budget during the Klinton era (error).

[OCC]

It will be nice to have someone to vote for in Ohio rather than just vote against the Rats.
