I know a lot of people that really like Kasich. His pragmatic, common sense way of speaking really resonates with people. I don't know if this will get him some needed money and a boost in the South where Jeb is likely to do better. Sounds like Christie is going to hang it up. Carson should too.

Start your engines. What we've had so far are two great outings by Trump and one good outing by Cruz in a state that typically means nothing. Rubio's last debate just may have been his Howard Dean moment.

John Kasich has no organization and in the South and his moderate brand of Republican politics doesn’t go over well there.

Plus, he’s out of money and Jeb and Rubio are more interested in mutual destruction.

And its effectively a race between Trump and Cruz right now, with Trump having the edge.

Trump has to watch his mouth as he can be his own worst enemy. If he just stays positive and focuses on bashing the rats, he can easily gain strength and win the nomination by the end of March.

I still think Jeb is in this race and should not be forgotten.

It’s Rubio and Jeb as the last two GOPe candidates and I just have this awful feeling that they are going to hang around a while.

If every RINO candidate dropped out today except Rubio, the GOPe might have had a small chance of getting back control.

But, after NH there is no way in heck Bush or Kasich will step aside until Florida.

Which hands the nomination to Trump, or if something causes Trump to stumble, Cruz.

Oooh my, the Wednesday morning reality check is in. The mad as hell American voter has pummeled the Republican Establishment to the point where the head on this corrupt monster looks like a mashed tomato.

Grand Old Panic as Trump blows away the establishment

Good! It's about effing time someone did. The uniparty is a cancer we won't survive:

Parties will destroy the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion [the committeeman process],
Parties are destructive to the regular deliberation and action of the constituted authorities,
Parties open the door to foreign influence and corruption, thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another.
Parties serve to organize division,
will ruin public liberty,
stifles, control’s, represses,
foment occasional riots & insurrection,
kindle animosity of one part against another,
puts in the place of the delegated will of the nation the will of a party,
agitates the community with ill founded jealousies & false alarms,
works to undermine the Constitution which could not be directly overthrown,
serves to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration,
drives the spirit of revenge
leads to despotism."
"Parties are truly your worst enemy."
~George Washington
I should have just bolded the entire list.

George Washington was right then and, unfortunately, even more right now.

Comparing the GOPe republicans' "lesser" evil brand to the demonrats' full strength version is like comparing an unflushed stadium toilet during a game to Port-a-John after a concert.

Don’t fall over in a dead shock if Trump picks K-sick for VP. Ohio is a must win swing state. And K-sick is a faithful party foot soldier. He will do what he’s told and be happy to be along for the ride like Biden.
