A top adviser to Ohio Gov. John Kasich’s presidential campaign is comparing Donald Trump to a drunk NASCAR driver.

Kasich’s political strategist, John Weaver, did not specifically mention the New York businessman in his Monday tweet about the upcoming Republican presidential debate. But there’s no question who he is referring to.

“Imagine a NASCAR driver mentally preparing for a race knowing one of the drivers will be drunk,” Weaver wrote on Twitter. “That’s what prepping for this debate is like.”

Trump, who has not been shy about attacking his rivals in the Republican race, is expected to have one of the 10 podiums at the first debate next week.

But it’s still unclear whether Kasich, who announced his bid last week, will place poll well-enough to guarantee himself an invite to the stage.

I see.

Drunk = Ability to tell the truth at any moment.

[PATRIOT1876]

Sounds like Kasich is chicken.

I can smell the fear from here!

[2ndDivisionVet]

What are Kasich’s poll numbers?

[dforest]

Kasich is going nowhere, this was a stupid move.

Oh well!

[dfwgator]

He’s running? Who Knew?

[RoosterRedux]

I guess this guy doesn’t know that Trump doesn’t drink.

Nothing like painting a target on yourself.

John Kasich is about to about to have the gentle ministrations of The Donald directed his direction.

“Imagine a NASCAR driver mentally preparing for a race knowing one of the drivers will be drunk,” Weaver wrote on Twitter. “That’s what prepping for this debate is like.”

He should not call his boss a drunk, or a NASCAR driver...

* Drunk = Ability to tell the truth at any moment. *

In the bad old Soviet days, they said that you were insane if you told the truth.

Kasich has changed it to “Drunk” so as to obscure the origin of his thinking.

[RoosterRedux]

What are Kasich’s poll numbers?

Is zero a number?

[McGruff]

Kasich’s political strategist, John Weaver...

is probably going to be looking for employment soon.

Got a lot of air time on last week's race, mostly because the driver wrecked two times, LOL:

[Mariner]

Kasich hopes that an attack by Trump will lift him onto the debate stage.

NO chance.

[Farmer Dean]

Kasich made the mistake of getting off the porch to run with the big dogs.
I’m from Ohio ,trust me John is a non-event.

[wolfman23601]

Does it matter if Kasich won’t even be at the debate?

[stars & stripes forever]

Kasich is hoping a TRUMP response will boost his poll numbers.

[NKP_Vet]

Kasich is your consumate Washington insider, in otherwords another uber RINO.

There *is* no question who Weaver is referring to.

It's obviously Jeb Bush.

The blow Kasich out of the water begins now. Over under is 48 hours.
