Kasich is doing the same thing Cruz is doing;
trying to keep Trump from getting the nomination.

I think he is trying to keep his campaign going until the GOP convention, hoping to get the nomination there, as the only non-Trump and non-Cruz candidate.

He has the notion that both camps would find him acceptable.

I personally think he is delusional.

Right now Kasich is the guy for Republicans who can’t bring themselves to support either Trump or Cruz. Voting for Kasich relieves them of the burden of having to choose between two men they find distasteful.

So now these RINOs know how hard the rest of us had to swallow for their two RINO losers in 2008 and 2012.

Kasich is ensuring 8 years of a Hillary Clinton presidency.

Article title incorrectly presupposes that Kasich is capable of thought.

Buckeyes do peculiar things; it’s part of being a Buckeye! I know he’s really a Keystoner though.

What he is doing is obvious. Hoping Trump does not get required delegates on first ballot, watches Trump and Cruz death match for several rounds, then becomes the compromise choice.

Except for the number of votes, Cruz is in a very similar situation - can’t win w/o stopping Trump and then relying on a toss of the dice - dice that are being rigged by the GOPe and RNC and other entrenched folks to try to ensure neither Trump or Cruz make the ballot - Resurging Rubio anyone?

He has 143 delegates.

Someday; another candidate may NEED those 143 very badly.

THAT's what he is doing!

Once again, people are generally thinking short term instant gratification. Those who are most willing to delay gratification are usually the most successful in any endeavor.

National convention delegates are the tip of the iceberg. Placing ‘your people’ in visible positions, and on various committees that determine the future of the party, lays the groundwork for future campaigns, by the candidate himself or by someone he would like to influence, or even just keeps the spotlight on a few major issues over an extended period of time.

He’s running a campaign. If you don’t want to vote for him, don’t vote for him. If people want to vote for him, even if he can’t win, let them.
