Republican presidential candidate John Kasich on Monday said that Indianas voters should still back him, despite an alliance with Ted Cruz to clear the way for his presidential rival in the state's Republican primary.
Ive never told them not to vote for me, he said at a diner in Philadelphia. "They ought to vote for me.
Im not out there campaigning and spending resources, Kasich added. "Im not going to spend resources in Indiana. [Cruz is] not going to spend resources in other places. So what? Whats the big deal? Whats wrong with that? Im not campaigning in Indiana, and hes not campaigning in those other states. Thats all.

They will. I predict turnout is going to be YUGE.
Too funny. Keystone Cops came to my mind too and I didn’t even see your reply yet when I posted it.
Haha.. Lie down with dogs!!
Hoosiers don’t particularly care for Buckeyes.
Haha. Kasich did the same thing to Marco Rubio. Rubio encouraged his people to vote for Kasich in Ohio and asked Kasich to encourage his people to vote for Rubio in Florida. Kasich refused. This time he went beyond refusing, he lied.
Which snake broke the pact first?

Better call Saul.
That alliance didn’t last very long.
VOTERS BEWARE!
Did Kasich not read the fine print? Did they put their ‘agreement’ in writing?
Surely, it wasn’t just a gentleman’s agreement, since it seems to have dissolved so quickly. Or maybe it was 2 gentlemen short.
I think it was Kasich. As a funny Trump supporter said, this collusion is shorter than the Stalin/Hitler pact.
Cruz had his fingers crossed behind his back.
See, Cruz ‘forgot’ to tell his media buyers to yank his #StopTrump ads lol ... “A vote for Kasich is a vote for Trump”.
That alliance was like speed dating without the foreplay.

**********what?
I thought voters didn’t matter to Kasich/Cruz? Talk about trying to have it both ways!
3 interesting observations:
1. Cruz is not that grat a unifier...he could not even keep an agreement to tag-team Trump for 24 hours.
2. Kasich is a bigger weasel than I thought...So vain he double-crossed Cruz.
3. GOPe cannot be trusted even to be honest among themselves.
Kasich pulls off the two-handed double backstab with a twist. Even the East German judge is impressed.
“Ha ha ha. Kasich stabs Cruz in the back while he is bare ass to the wind after sending out the Jeff Roe PR yesterday. LOL.”
Good grief the GOP is full of schizos! Which John Kasich are we seeing today? Which Jeff Roe? Which Ted Cruz?
SMH
You can bet that Cruz isn’t going to tell his supporters to vote for Kasich either. All their big tag team plan does is make them look like losers, sour-grapers, and just plain pathetic. I also think that the scheme till increase support for Trump, because it looks so much like the rigged system he talks about.
The only reason Cruz is getting out of Oregon and NM is because he is not expected to do well there. Now he will have an excuse that he let Kasich have them. What a joke.
“You can bet that Cruz isnt going to tell his supporters to vote for Kasich either. “
You’re right. Team Cruz has already sent an email to not vote for Kasich because (get this) Kasich has NO chance to win in rounds #2 or #3 at the Convention. Cruz describes Kasich’s role as the spoiler to keep Trump under 50% in Indiana.
What a nice bunch of guys.
Pure, bumper to bumper, glorious white Republican asshattery.
Is it any wonder why so many GOP voters jumped on the first bus to get off the GOP Inc Plantation?
