Agree Kasich really did well in the R primary in Ohio and won the last gov election by THIRTY points. Putting him on the ticket probably locks in Ohio.

Then you carpet bomb Florida and Virginia in the campaign and you’re good to win.

Trump is rich, but not rich enough to defeat Hillary in the general election without donor money. Small donors like us could make up some of the difference, but in the end he’ll need access to Republican PACs, which means convincing the GOP establishment that no matter how much they hate him, they’re better off with him than with Hillary. Probably the only way to do that is to pick an establishment running mate, as Reagan did with Bush in 1980. Kasich would be the least objectionable choice among establishment candidates (he’s more the bumbling loser type than an outright jerk like Rubio or Bush), and as a bonus Trump gets Ohio.

Ernst, Haley, Martinez all were Rubio supporters, and Trump doesn’t need or want open border pro amnesty people it would turn off his own base.

Rubio has same problem, and Trump doesn’t need him to do well in Florida, Trump won FL. by 20%.

Kasich, passed NAFTA and didn’t beat Trump by much in Ohio, so Trump don’t need him.

Pence endorsement was for loser Cruz, Bobby Knight endorsed Trump.

Newt, presided over House for first time in generations.
Running against the Clitons Newt is squeeky clean.

Newt was competent and accomplished more in the first 6 months than Obama has in 7 years.
