Discuss. I think he would, but it would have to be a great margin between him and the others

Yes. I still don't know why Rubio's third place in Iowa is being spun as a win for him. President Fred Thompson might have something to say about that, though. He's not the establishment candidate yet.

He might eventually, but not immediately after NH.

I feel like he may end up being Huntsman 2.0 and get a 3rd place showing, but Kasich has a lot of momentum, along with Bush in New Hampshire right now.

Depends on the margin, but if it's solid, yes. The problem is that the margin probably won't be big enough (if he becomes 2nd) and even if he becomes the establishment candidate I fear he won't beat Trump and Cruz with this electorate.

The South ain't voting for no Yankee unless he truly stands with them like Trump.

Stop trying to make Kasich happen. He's not going to happen.

But... Kasich is so... moderate!

In all seriousness, I'd consider supporting Kasich. At least he seems genuine.

Man I'd love that.  I was hard on Kasich when he kept bellyflopping at debate after debate, but I've liked him a lot in these last two.
