so if you were to predict....who would you predict?
Kasich?
Just curious.
I think, alas, that Kasich has a real shot at it. If not him, then somebody like him - low profile, not very well known outside of his region or his district, if he’s a legislator - but at the same time not any of the perennial candidates who have been running in every election cycle since forever (Huckabee, Christie, Santorum, etc.).
However, like them, the anointed GOP candidate will still be able to talk out of both sides of his mouth...and will lose again.
It’s a pity, because I thought we had some good new blood this time around. But I don’t think any of them has a chance, between the Trump show (which has sucked all attention away from the others and is being gleefully encouraged by the Dem press, btw) and the clear desire of the GOP to find somebody who is cast in the Bush, Huckabee, Christie mold without actually being any of them. I wish I were more optimistic.
