Kasich: I think it will be a very good year for Democrats in midterms
The Hill ^ | 10/07/18 | MEGAN KELLER

Gov. John Kasich (R-Ohio) said Sunday that he thinks Democrats will have a "good year" in the November midterms.

"How good? I'm not so sure, because if their message is abolish ICE and things like that, if -- they're not going to have a big wave," Kasich said on CNN's "State of the Union."

"The natural progression of things is, when the president's in two years out, the other party does well," he said.

"I don't know how big the wave is going to be," the governor said. "So we got to see what happens in November, but then we have to move beyond that election and try to get this country unified."

Kasich has been critical of the Republican Party, saying in April that it "left me." The possible 2020 White House contender lost a 2016 bid to President Trump, whom he has chastised.

Analysts have said that Democrats are going into the midterms in a strong position to gain a majority in the House, although their chances of retaking the Senate are eroding.

However, some have begun to predict that the recent confirmation fight over Justice Brett Kavanaugh may galvanize the Republican base to counteract the sluggishness that usually effects the winning party two years after a presidential election.

Democrats currently hold a 6.6 percentage point lead over Republicans in a RealClearPolitics average of generic congressional ballot surveys.

“John Kasich? the guy who PROMISED to support the Republican nominee? The John Kasich?”

Kasich is the consummate Never Trumpers. He is absolutely ate up by Trump Derangement Syndrome. In his case it’s terminal...

Kasich’s personality reminds me he is the combination of these 3 characters from The Wizard of Oz:

The Scarecrow
The Cowardly Lion
The Tin Man

all these 3 characters in one person: KASICH

He is a closeted self-loathing defeatist. He fit right in with the RINO party, but not so much the Republican party.

Kasick is both full of crap and delusional.

In order for the RATS to win the House, they have to run the table and literally win each and every toss up district.

That is NOT going to happen.

In fact, there are a number of districts currently held by the dems that are increasingly looking like a flip from dem to GOP....in Minnestoa, New Hampshire and yes, even in California, amongst other states.

Don’t start measuring for curtains just yet, crazy Nancy.

25 years ago I thought he might be President someday. Turned out I was spectacularly wrong about that. Kasich is a joke.

Like all the NeverTrumpers, son of a mailman is hoping.

If Repubs retain the House, all of the remaining neverTrumpers will become dems like Jen Rubin, David Frump, Schmidt

sounds to me like Hong Kong Phooey really is hedging his bets.

“well, it’ll be big, but it depends on the message, plus you never really know, so, well, history says, blah blah blah blah...”

shaddap, huggy boy.

I can’t think of 3 more unattractive men to run for president. Kristol has taste in his feet.

Kasich can be summarized in 2 words:

SOUR GRAPES !!

Kasich was always strange... but he has lost all sense of just what comes from his hand.
