Just because you keep repeating this talking point, doesn't make it true. It's sad how you try to hide your liberalism.

Calling him a lib would pretty much make you Attilla the Hun.

Actually, I am a lib in the classical sense--classical liberal. Or libertarian in modern America.

I agree with the first part, but Kasich is basically a conservative democrat. We might as well elect Hillary.

John Sununu says vote for the most conservative candidate who can win. In this election, that might well be Kasich.

or why kasich is the perfect vp....

Kasich is a moderate that understands how to actually bring the two parties together and forge solutions. That alone makes him by FAR the best candidate for the Republican party. I'm an unaffiliated moderate that voted for Romney in 2012 - but if Trump wins the GOP nomination then I'm going to vote for a smaller party this year.

The GOP doesn't need to win the votes of the far-right. They need someone that is palatable to those without hard-line views.

Like he did when he installed the state medicaid expansion of Obamacare.

He also doesnt seem to give a rat's ass about religious liberty.
