How Kasich became National Republican Grownup
Yahoo News ^ | March 17, 2016 | Matt Bai

Normally, it wouldn’t be a very big deal for a popular two-term governor to win a presidential primary in his own state, especially if it’s the first of 29 states (and a couple of territories) he’s actually won.

Kasich is the new favorite of the media. He will get an enormous amount of very favorable coverage.

The media see him as a tool to use to attack Trump.

"Kasich wandered into an impenetrable swarm of TV reporters, whose aggressive and overlapping questions — almost entirely about Donald Trump"

He is not a grownup. He is a liberal spending our money for his wishful fantasies.

Right, what a shame that the GOP won’t run another loser the Democrats can easily defeat.

That is how the MSM defines being grown up.

“Grown up” = surrendering the the Democrat Party social welfare agenda.

Right now, Gov. Kasich is Mr. Trumps best friend. He’s blocking Sen. Cruz’ effort to improve his results, thus disrupting the primary with zero chance of actually winning.

Kasich is now campaigning on a promise of blanket illegal-alien amnesty and erased national borders. He’s a candidate for President who is promising to end the USA.

It must be an election year. The media has fallen in love with another RINO.

He was raised by a milkman. Perhaps that helped.

Don’t care for him at all. His favorite opening reply to anything is “Well the fact of the matter is” ....and then goes on how good he was as governor in 0hio.

He’s Otto the autopilot - the last resort of the establishment to try and land the plane!

Otto needs reinflation, but we, the voters, aren’t interested in providing that service.

“Gov. Kasich is Mr. Trumps best friend. He’s blocking Sen. Cruz’ effort to improve his results”

Tom Delay says Kasich will make a deal with Cruz and bow out of the race.
