Kasich rules out vice president role, is open to Dem running mate [not satire]
Washington Examiner ^ | 3/23/2016 | Ryan Lovelace

Ohio Gov. John Kasich said he isn't willing to serve as anyone's vice president, but he indicated party affiliation would not matter to him when choosing his own running mate.

After losing the Arizona primary and trailing a candidate who is no longer running for president, Kasich hit the campaign trail in Wisconsin and told voters only he could beat the Democrats in November.

*********snip-it********

The questioner then asked whether the Ohio governor would consider selecting a Democrat as his vice presidential running mate. Kasich avoided immediately answering the question before indicating he would not rule out working with a Democrat.

Kasich must possess a huge pile a sh*t because he sure throws enough of it against the wall to see if any of it sticks.

In a way, Kasich is just admitting the existence of the Uniparty.

The elite pretend to be concerned because they say, Trump isn’t a ‘real’ conservative, or a ‘real’ republican?

More hypocrisy, blather and BS.

It absolutely amazes me that this is the same John Kasich who was one of the principal Republicans who advocated for fiscal discipline and got the deficit under control in the 1990s.

Might as well. It is the Uni-party.

I knew that Kasich would be open to a democrat running mate. The man is pro-Amnesty, pro-Obamacare, pro-”assault weapons” ban, and his comment on the religious freedom of bakers who are ordered to participate in gay “marriage” ceremonies was “bake the cupcake”. I would be surprised if he was open to a republican on the ticket with him.

Maybe if he was offered US Postmaster, he might go away.

Kasich’s plan is to keep taking away Cruz votes so that Trump can win the GOP nomination.
Then he will be President Clinton’s Vice President.
