1. His record in the private sector and as Governor of Florida

- Reduced taxes by $19 billion
- Reduced the size of state government by 11% and privatized agencies and services
- Enacted tort reform
- Enacted medicaid reform with more choices including private options
- Enacted the nation's first statewide school voucher program
- Ended social promotion in third grade
- Supported opportunity scholarships
- Signed "Stand Your Ground" into law along with 11 other NRA-backed gun laws
- Ended partial-birth abortion
- Eliminated civil service protections to reward effective workers but fire incompetent ones
- Presided over a credit upgrade, the creation of more jobs than any state in America, and 4.4% growth in Florida's economy

2. His vision
- Lower tax rates with fewer deductions and loopholes
- A balanced budget constitutional amendment
- Paul Ryan's constitutional line-item veto
- A strong national defense without policing the world
- Entitlement reform
- Immigration reform with a pathway to legal status, a guest worker program, and e-verify with a secure border and an end to sanctuary cities
- Repeal of Obamacare
- Embracing the energy revolution
- State's rights

But his name outweighs any of that. Kasich is the better candidate.

Kasich is a wimp who is fine with Roe V. Wade and used his religion to justify expanding medicaid under Obamacare, no thanks.

Jeb is the ultimate beta male (and beta males do not have a good track record winning Presidential elections), so it's pretty ironic for a Jeb supporter to call any of the other candidates "wimps."

There is nothing wrong with being a compassionate male, I don't think there is anything wrong with men showing their heart. That goes for Jeb Bush, John Kasich, and every male in this society.

That being said, Jeb Bush has stood up for conservative principles even under political pressure. Under pressure, John Kasich caved to the liberals and now justifies doing so by using is faith to justify expanding the welfare state. If John Kasich couldn't stand up for fiscal responsibility and sound policy on medicaid, if he takes the Supreme Court as gospel, how can we expect him to stand up for ordinary Americans who are struggling because of big government?

Kasich was correct on Medicaid; failing to accept expanded Medicaid has caused many states to experience funding problems with hospitals, particularly many rural hospitals.

Jeb doesn't care.  His "cost containment" plan just means that the uninsured will be short the ability to afford healthcare by a lesser margin.

John Kasich is NOT pro-choice.

Never said he was, but he did say that Roe V. Wade is the "law of the land."

Well it is, and passing legislation people know to be unconstitutional that will, often very quickly, be voided by Federal Courts, is a deliberate waste of taxpayer monies.  I don't like that fact, but even Samuel Alito, during his confirmation hearings, described Roe v. Wade as "a precedent worthy of respect".  And in Constitutional Law, based on the principle of stare decisis, it very much is.  Short of the SCOTUS overruling itself (unlikely, but possible) or a Constitutional Amendment passing that prohibits abortion (not possible, politically, at this point in time), that's where we're at.  Unfortunately.
