VILLANOVA, Penn. — Still vibrating from his home state primary win, Gov. John Kasich (R-Ohio) told crowds in the Philadelphia suburbs that President Obama had blown his chance to get a Supreme Court nominee, and that the two remaining candidates for the Republican nomination would lose the election.

"Neither of those guys can win a general election, so maybe they're spoiling it for the Republican Party and for the conservative movement," Kasich said of Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) "It's unlikely that anybody is going to achieve enough delegates to avoid a convention, and for those who worry about a convention, it'll be right in the open. I mean, there's no closed rooms, there's nothing but total transparency . . . and you talk to people in Pennsylvania, they'll tell you, I can win a general election."

I think that suit was just dropped. it was a Rubio supporter that filed it and Rubio is helping Kasich.

LOL, postal worker sounds more serious than mailman.

talk to people in Pennsylvania, they'll tell you, I can win a general election.

The Ohio counties bordering Pennsylvania went for Trump yesterday.

He told us his dad carried the mail on his back, but he forgot to tell us he dropped Little Johnny on his head.

This tidbit showed up on my facebook page: Washington Post reporting the GOP establishment is holding a meeting tomorrow to discuss particulars of a third-party run of Nebraska Republican Senator Ben Sass to derail Donald Trump.

I think he’d prefer Ambassador to George Soros ...

[mabelkitty]

He’s in Pennsylvania to work through that pesky ballot issue.

He’s so confident because he knows he is going to steal this.

[irishjuggler]

The ego and vanity of this guy is unreal. If the dude is such a freakin’ vote magnet, why is he in 4th place — behind Rubio — in delegates?

[Glad2bnuts]

He walks like Eyegore, looks like a leftard school teacher, YUP, I’ll vote for him....lol.

[Paine in the Neck]

No one wants Kasich, the erzatz Jeb. Kasich and his $$ enablers don't seem to understand that if Kasich somehow finagles the nomination and steps off to lead the parade there's going to be no one behind him. How's he going to win without any voters?

Kasich said he should be running in the democrat primary. Perhaps he has a point.

[mabelkitty]

Never underestimate the ability of Ohio political hacks to commit voter fraud.

[Rusty0604]

Because he is for the environmental crap that is losing jobs there.

[RC one]

The Democrats.

[Rusty0604]

So many names being thrown out, how much of it do you think is just speculation?

[Laserman]

Kasich is living in his own delusional RINO land. What a fool.

It is definitely too late for them to file. The issue in the Rubio case was whether it was filed on time. Now there is no question if a new challenge is filed. Kasich will be on the Pennsylvania ballot.
