Republican presidential candidate John Kasich insisted Tuesday he would not consider running for the vice presidency.

“Zero chance, just stop there, zero chance,” he told Fox Business Network’s “Varney & Co.,” specifically referencing Donald Trump.

“I have no interest,” Kasich added. "I’m going to be governor of Ohio. There is zero chance I will be anybody’s vice presidential candidate — period, end of story.”

Kasich is right of course,but not for the reason he thinks.

[Clintonfatigued]

This is good news. I have zero interest in having John Kasich on the ticket.

[RadiationRomeo]

I figured a potential VP was the reason he was still in the race. I’m surprised.

[2banana]

Zero chance he would be asked

[xzins]

Which means he’s out on a lark wasting everyone’s time and money.

There’s no way he’s winning the nomination.

[John S Mosby]

And you won’t be governor much longer, once the medicaid boomerang hits home and the state goes bankrupt. What a BS artist, and opportunist.

[who_would_fardels_bear]

Yes. Truly another surprise.

I guess his ego was bigger than we thought. He actually entertained the idea that he could win.

[lee martell]

Yeah. That’s what you say now, trying to save face. Let’s see what you say when the front runner actually does give you that phone call or email. Do you think Chris Christie in his wildest dreams ever thought he’d be a Team Trump Cheerleader?
One does what has to be done in order to survive.

What would surprise me is if Trump asked Jeb! to be his VP.
I think after a lot of hemming and hawing, Jeb would say yes.
It would be his last chance to enter the hallowed halls of the highest office.

"Which means he’s out on a lark wasting everyone’s time and money."

He kept Bush's and Christie's numbers down and is likely eating into Rubio's as well.

He is truly doing the Lord's work (whether he realizes it or not).

[refreshed]

He’s not interested. I’m not interested. Great! I agree with Kasich.

[SaveFerris]

Yeah, no kidding. Who wants him? Not me.

[onyx]

GOOD ON YOU, JOHN KASICH!

Hang in there!

Go for the big prize!

[xzins]

Good point.

But does he know he’s helping those he says he doesn’t support?

He’s no neophyte. He has to know that.

[MUDDOG]

Too bad Postmaster General is no longer a cabinet position.

[VRWCarea51]

Good!

TRANSLATION: KASICH is waiting by the telephone for the VP call.

Let's hope not. The last time a Bush was Vice President, the President ended up being shot less than 60 days into his first term.

[Lurkinanloomin]

That’s good, I don’t think anybody wanted him for VP.

None of the also rans, probably should be somebody familiar with the District of Corruption.
