Republican Ohio Gov. John Kasich (KAY’-sik) says he wants to see unity, healing and leadership this presidential election cycle.

The Columbus Dispatch reports (http://bit.ly/1Y9mVYl ) Kasich told guests at the Ohio Republican Party’s annual state dinner on Saturday that he did not know how the election would go or what his plans would be.

It's good that he is calling for unity.

Republicans need to realize that they need to unite, support, and vote for Trump, or we will get President Hillary Clinton.

“As Hillarys VP?”

He wouldn’t do that. He was talking about unity within the Republican party, which is indeed important.

Exactly. It was a really nasty primary season, and a lot of that nastiness was initiated by Trump. He’s now the presumptive nominee, and the party is uniting behind him in spite of an exceptionally bitter fight. I’d say it would be in the best interest of Trump’s supporters to welcome the acquiescence and support of his former opponents without directing a bunch of bullshit at them.

A few weeks on psychotropic drugs may have helped him get a grasp on reality. Thanks John.

Please. He is a counter puncher. And a damn good one at that.

Great news. Wish he and Trump could be simpatico on trade and strong borders. Kasich would probably appeal to cross over democrats in swing states. I am still pondering who Trump should choose for veep. Perhaps, Ohio Senator Rob Portman might fill the bill, as I gather he has a reputation for being adept at trade issues.
I hope Trump won’t have to orchestrate an awful compromise the way Reagan did in picking Bush. Remember “Voodoo Economics.”
Now, all we need is for ole Ted to get on board the Trump Train!!!

Of course, Mr. Kumbaya could create a lot of healing by endorsing the clear winner of the primaries, but Son of Mailman is too full of crap to do so.

I don’t want him anywhere on a ticket with Trump.

Trump does not need him to gain Ohio.

At least Kasich’s postal worker father had an honest job.

Oh Hell NO! Trump should close the door on that worthless turd! The Conservatives should shun the bastard! He's an unmitigated disgrace! The needless trouble and dissention he fomented is unforgivable! It might have been worthwhile at one point in time, but now that we know he's not who he claims to be, he needs to be banned from politics forever!

Not a Chance! The only way it works is for Cruzers to admit to the rest of us that they were seriously mislead, and that they are sorry for their relentless attacks in support of that worthless turd!

Kasich is a Democrat who pretends to be a Republican. The truth hurts.

Kasich is pretty far out on the left. But Trump will take all the votes he can get.

Good, Governor Kasich, begin by making sure that Ohio’s city of Cleveland is ready to maintain some law and order in the midst of the onslaught that leftist scumbags will launch upon the RNC this summer!
