Kasich uses debate as opportunity to irritate voters
Yeah, pretty much that’s what he did. I had to run down to MA yesterday afternoon / evening and just barely got back in time to watch the main (versus the “kids table”) Republican Presidential debate last night. Glad I did – much better questions, answers, and back and forth on Fox Business News than the previous ones (including Fox News). But I will agree with the headline – Kasich was a putz. I tweeted out the debate and here’s a couple of my flash thoughts on Kasich. Best one was the last one:

.@JohnKasich, formerly of Lehman Brothers, is telling us about greed being the problem on Wall Street. That's hilarious.#GOPDebate

Trump ended argument with Kasich with "I don't need to hear from this man." Kasich had no come back. #fitn #nhpolitics

Kasich is going for time of possession, which is not a great GOP primary debate strategy when everything you say is liberal.

Kasich just said a bunch of words & w his first answer he already sounds like Charlie Brown's teacher

And it wasn’t just me – Frank Lutz had a bunch of NH voters doing his “dial-a-matic” focus group and I watch some snippets of their reactions on the Kelly File (Fox News) after the debate. Oh wow!
Kasich just scored the lowest ever in my focus group.
His support of bailouts "for people who can afford it" scored an 8. #GOPDebate

My NH focus group is offended by Kasich's interruptions. Really offended
Lowest dials of the #GOPdebate – 25. Doesn't get worse than that.

.@TedCruz scores big (hits 98) with "I'm tired of being told I'm anti-immigrant. It's offensive."
Actually outscores trump on immigration.

My #GOPDebate focus group is yelling at the screen. They don't want Kasich to speak.
Why, Johnny, why?

And a snippet of an Email Doodling with the other Groksters:
I just watched it at lunch – boy that stuff on Kasich was BRUTAL. Even during the debate, it was clear that Kasich did not belong on that stage as an R regardless of some of the good stuff he may have done in OH.Yes, ANYone running for Prez has to have a well developed sense of self-worth, but he was WAY over the top and was rather angry that others can’t see his brilliance.Good to see that the Sununus “chose poorly”
