The Magnificent Seven
“I think abortion is an important issue, but I think there’s many other issues that are really critical. Early childhood. Infant mortality. The environment. Education. I think we focus too much on just one issue, and now that the issue of gay marriage is kind of off the table, we’re kind of down to one social issue.”
— Gov. John Kasich (R), quoted by CNN.
