Our Principles and Policies radio show for Saturday October 10, 2015. Barry Sheets and Chuck Michaelis discuss and analyze the recent resignation of House Speaker John Boehner and the race to replace him and ask the question “if there are 2 candidates for House Speaker then why did John Boehner postpone the Speaker election?” Then we expose John Kasich’s pandering to the left in order to win in the New Hampshire presidential primary with vanishing results.
