You omitted some pertinent information , TPM.

It’s interesting that Kasich’s support in NH is half of what it was a month ago. That’s a trend line I like. I don’t want to see him get the nomination… among other things, it would make taking Ohio more difficult. But, like Walker, his value proposition is more based on his resume than on his actual retail political skills as a candidate.
