John Kasich guarantees brokered GOP convention
de-Face the Nation/CBS ^ | 3-20-16 | EMILY SCHULTHEIS

"We will go into Cleveland with momentum and then the delegates are going to consider two things: Number one, who can win in the fall--and I'm the only one that can, that's what the polls indicate," he said. "And number two, a really crazy consideration, like who could actually be president of the United States."

At the convention itself, Kasich noted that the candidate who goes in with the most delegates hasn't historically been the one to get the nomination most of the time.

"If you go in way ahead you're likely to be picked, but what's interesting is in the 10 contested Republican conventions, did you know that the leader going in only got picked three times?" he asked.

If this happens, look for the Republicans to lose the House and Senate as well. Would serve them right.,

Kasich should be running as a Demorat. He could easily be Hillary’s VP. He is desperate for a new gig after his Ohio stint is over.

Kasich and Cruz don’t actually care about the voters choice. They’re both doing the will of their overlords in the GOP. Anyone who thinks they will be “good” conservatives is crazy. They’ll do exactly what they’ve done all along and exactly what the establishment wants them to.

The GOP has consistently done this in lesser races. "Insiders only." The party label is distant secondary in importance.

Cruz and Kasich have that goal in common, both thinking it will benefit them somehow. Instead, they are helping Romney to the nomination. Damn fools.

Meanwhile, in the Cruz camp...

Ted Cruz guarantees brokered GOP convention

“We will go into Cleveland with momentum and then the delegates are going to consider two things: Number one, who can win in the fall—and I’m the only one that can, that’s what the polls indicate,” he said. “And number two, a really crazy consideration, like who could actually be president of the United States.”
