Kasich: Contested convention would be 'exciting'
Politico ^ | March 6, 2016 | Louis Nelson

"What's the big deal about that, other than it's exciting?" Kasich continued. "Think about how much education our kids are going to get, about the way in which we pick a president. ...I think it will be very cool."

Exciting.

Well, the reaction to it may be exciting as well.

Yep our kids will learn because they don’t teach any of this in school anymore. They teach LGBT sensitivity and global warming but don’t have civics classes as such any more.

Every time I see Kasich’s hand gestures all I can think about is tying them behind his back.

Disenfranchising primary voters is exciting to John Kasich.

Moron.

Mr. Excitment himself !

If the GOPe pulls a backroom deal at the convention to bypass the candidate who has legitimately won the most delegates they will see a record low voter turnout in November and be guaranteeing Hillary a victory.

Maybe that’s their objective.....

there’s no such thing is homophobia and transphobia.

it’s a VERY NATURAL aversion to something that completely goes against nature!!!

i’m sure early man felt the same thing. This is UNNATURAL. I can’t relate. this doesn’t belong.

Rubio and Kasich are not being spiteful by staying in the race. They are hoping for a payoff when a brokered convention takes place...just my humble opinion.

Absolutely, Kasich thinks he's holding Ohio's votes hostage and he'll be proven right or wrong, soon enough.

Dondi, OTOH is finished, kaput. March 15th will be the end of the road for his campaign. I hope he invested well.

They have to win something first to have a block of delegates that would have any leverage.

If it comes to a brokered convention, Kasich is far down the list of the RNC’s pick for coronation, while Cruz won’t even be an option for them. We’re more likely to get Jeb Bush, or even Mitt Romney for another (failed) round. If they can’t get sufficiently many of Cruz’s delegates to sign onto Jeb or Mitt, there’s always Golden Boy Rubio.

If I had a magic zot button, I’d get rid of anyone here who ever gave Kasich the tiniest bit of respect. He’s repulsive.

I will sit out and not vote if they choose someone who does not have the highest delegate count.

If they do that, we Know the GOP wants to lose. I thought this after Dole then McCain and then Romney. But this would conclusively prove that the GOP is the part of losers.
