This past weekend, while stumping for Chris Sununu, a Republican running for governor of New Hampshire, Ohio Governor John Kasich has a revealing moment. The only problem is that we don't know what it revealed. Inside a bookstore, Kasich, looking at the latest Harry Potter book commented,"You know that Daniel Radcliffe has declared himself an atheist?" He then added, "What a weird thing. Why would a guy who has had all that success just, I mean, what the hell is wrong with him?" The reporter thought that this comment suggested Kasich's surprise that God would be so generous to a non-believer. Possible. It could also mean that Kasich, maybe a closet atheist himself, felt such a revelation would put Radcliffe's popularity at risk and saw it as a brave but foolish move. Of course, Radcliffe, being British comes from a land of growing atheism while Kasich lives a world of magical thinking so we'll never know whether he's a magical thinker or not.
