Ohio Governor, John Kasich came in 2nd in the New Hampshire Republican primary election on Tuesday.

In this interview, WYSO's Jerry Kenney talks to Mark Caleb-Smith, the director of the Center for Political Studies atCedarville University about what this means for Kasich’s bid for the White House.
