CBS Poll: Kasich Tied with Trump in Ohio
Newsmax ^ | March 13,2016

Posted on 03/13/2016 8:44:23 AM PDT by Hojczyk

On the eve of a crucial primary that could determine the Republican nominee, Ohio Gov. John Kasich is tied with real estate mogul Donald Trump in the Buckeye State.

Both have 33 percent support in the CBS News Battleground Tracker poll released Sunday morning.

The poll shows that Kasich does well among voters who say the economy is in good shape, pollsters noted, while Trump leads among those who feel the Buckeye State’s economy is floundering.

But Trump has a 20-point lead over his closest challenger in winner-take-all Florida. He has 44 percent support in the poll, followed by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz with 24 percent and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio with 21 percent.

KAsick doesn’t have a chance for President. He is in the race only to take delegates from Trump. Typical GOPe buttboy.

Kasich wins easy. And it won't even be close. Kasich has by far the better ground game. And he has the momentum in the polls.

I think this weekend changed the whole dynamic of this race again. I think Trump will sweep all five states Tuesday, of course that’s not counting in the likely vote stealing by the GOPe especially in Florida and Ohio.

"Kasich wins easy. And it won't even be close. Kasich has by far the better ground game. And he has the momentum in the polls."

Also said by the Gope Cruz guy:

"As long as Trump gets clobbered by Kasich in Ohio, I am happy."

Ohioans voting for Kasich is unadulterated delusion.

“If Kasich is that magical in Ohio, perhaps he should stay there.”

Kasich is not well received in Ohio, by conservatives anyway. He dropped the ball big time on state public union reform and Obamacare Medicare expansion that will weigh heavily on our state budgets long past his time holding office.

That said, it’s not conservatives he needs to worry about, he’s about to get crushed in his own states by unions. I work for an organization that has several union plants (Cleveland area). I was floored when visiting the plants and half of the hard hats have “TRUMP” or “Make America Great Again” stickers on them.

I saw no such Kasich enthusiasm....

Kasich is a ridiculous person who would enslave the inhabitants of the other 49 states for the benefit of Ohioans. He has absolutely no chance, he’s in this race explicitly to sabotage democracy.

Kasich was ahead and Trump has caught him.

It's exactly the other way round according to RCP

What else can he say? Cruz doesn’t have a chance in either one. This is the problem with Ted Cruz. Once he gets out of the reliable red states and into the battleground ones like Ohio and Florida he has a hard time expanding his voting base. He would be a total disaster in November.

The pathetic buffoons are trying to create a spin and reverse Trump’s momentum since the obama thugs of Chicago and since Cruz’ coward statement ....

Who can believe in Kasich’s chances ?. The DemoGOP are so pathetic

Yes, Case-of-Sh*t is a major dufus. Talk about lack of energy. He exudes the emasculated male vibe that progressives have been programming into society.

Be careful John, Don't stand up tall and project masculine strength. After all you are white! OMG! and a MALE!!!

You must always seem weak, contrite and non threatening so you don't scare away “people of color” and those who have alternative lifestyles.

Be ever so careful and politically correct, walk on egg shells and tells us all about hose wonderful things you have done as a “public servant.”

They arent even promoting the guy as an actual presidential candidate anymore because of that.

He’s just there to help the Gope, while they still pretend like they are outsiders that care about the constitution more than you.

Why are you propping up Kasich instead of your guy Cruz? Oh, that’s right your guy has no prayer in either Florida or Ohio. Sorry Joe, but this ain’t Idaho or Wyoming. These are the battleground states where the election will be won and your guy is toast in all of them!

Cruz will dominate the Midwest. He already won Wyoming with the the biggest majority so far in these primaries. Not to mention Idaho.

Posting a poll which counters your claims is propping up Kasich?

So I guess facts that aren’t showing what you want them to say are hostile and propaganda, right?

Depends on the weather. If the regulars show up, Kasich has a chance. If the die hards show up, Trump is in.

The latest figures show that Ohio has a 4.7% unemployment rate, which is better than the national unemployment rate of 4.9% and also better than the 5% unemployment rate that economists consider full employment.

So any Ohioans ‘’who feel the Buckeye State’s economy is floundering’’ and are therefore voting for Trump are not living in the real world. Ignorance is not bliss when the future of the country is at stake.
