Republican presidential candidate John Kasich on Friday refused to repudiate an attack ad that a super political action committee supporting him has launched against his two leading rivals, even before he has watched it.

"I haven't seen the ad, but apparently they put something out," Kasich said when asked on Bloomberg Politics' With All Due Respect about an ad that has begun airing in New Hampshire, where the first presidential primary will be held. The ad, paid for by the pro-Kasich super-PAC New Day for America, suggests that Republican presidential front-runners Donald Trump and Ben Carson, neither of whom have ever held public office, would require "on the job training" to handle the threat posed by the Islamic State.
