One of the Illinois co-chairs of Ohio Gov. John Kasich's presidential campaign is brushing off saying that the only way Trump can be beaten is with a "head shot."

The comment, by Pat Brady, a former chairman of the Illinois Republican Party, came in an interview with Illinois's WGN Radio about a week ago after the last Republican presidential debate and was flagged Doug Ibendahl, a known critic of Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner's administration, which Brady supports.

"If you're going to take on Donald Trump, you've got to take him out with a head shot," Brady said during the interview.

Brady, asked about the comment after it was flagged by Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, said he didn't mean it literally.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

I don't care who the candidate is, you don't make a comment like this. There are enough crazies out there, you don't need to give them more ideas.

This guy deserves to have his ass kicked royally.

Taken out of context...

Blah...Blah...Blah..

I don’t think so.

[DoughtyOne]

Don’t forget. Cruz is in control...

Where’s the FBI on this ?

No way I let this stand,no way in hell

[smokingfrog]

That’s some real class, there ... not.

Exactly, I dont care if this comment is made against a Republican or a Democrat, saying something like this implies they want a certain candidate dead. The Kasich campaign(if you can even call it that) is underwater, I think they have what, 0.5 percent of the vote, just a desperate desperate fool that is what he is

[sport]

That was the message that was being sent to every wacko in the Country. That was no slip of the lip.
It was deliberate. We will see how long it is before one of them acts on it.

[nopardons]

EXACTLY !

Nobody should say such a thing about ANY candidate !

[Impy]

Pat Brady is for Gay’s Itch. What a shocker.

[Calpublican]

These political operatives are such sleazes. Even while he’s
saying it this guy knows Kasich couldn’t take out the trash.

[kvanbrunt2]

if i could find pat brady, i would email thx for taking a lot of money out of the campaign of kasich, bravo! do you work for trump?

[Riley]

He can’t karate-chop his way to the Presidency.

[anton]

Kasich is a “Cleveland Republican” which is something like a Manhattan Republican, or a San Francisco Republican.

Oops forgot my car also has Cruise Control!

Gee, another unemployed person sucking on the government tit.

I don’t even know what context this birdbrain could have meant this term, other than a mob hit or a real assassination.

A head shot is far worse than getting schlonged.
