Ohio Republican Gov. John Kasich expressed frustration with the current state of the Republican and Democratic parties Sunday amid rumors that he could pursue a 2020 presidential run.
"I'm still a Republican. I didn't leave the Republican Party. The Republican Party left me," Kasich said on CNN's "State of the Union." "In my state we have balanced budgets, surplus, we're up half a million jobs and then people say, 'Well Kasich's not a conservative.' What does that mean?"
"Come home to where we basically live," the 2016 presidential candidate added. "We should care about people from top to bottom, not just those at the top, but everybody. I can bring that party back. That's what I'm going to do in one way or another." Kasich hasn't ruled out a presidential run in 2020, saying that he's keeping his options open. And though he's been rumored to be pursuing an independent candidacy, he told CNN earlier this month that it was unlikely.

Those “Tower of Babel” counties are miserable places unless you are filthy rich.
You shouldn't be, so join the Dems.
GSC, but they all lost! I never underestimate assachusettes and in fact give strong consideration to turning it into a deep water port for Nashua.
We have a few members in my service club in NE Florida who have wondered down the coast. In a few years they have convinced the club to change one fundraiser, a trap shooting event, to a benefit concert. The loss of money was not insubstantial as the trap event raised a lot of money. The concert, not so much. In private conversations one always gets the “we did not do it like this back home”. I always ask, if this is not now home for you what is it?? They fail to see the point.
We didn’t leave you Kasich, without slowing down, we opened the door and kicked your ass out bitch!
Yes, there was a time when he made sense. I don’t know what happened to him but he began to slip away over the years to where he is now which is beyond the GOPe and in the land of the tax and give away group that allies with the dems 100%. Guys like this clown need to have Article I, Section 8 followed by PERIOD stenciled on their foreheads.
Kasich is lying about balanced budgets. By law, states MUST have balanced budgets. The states don’t have a Defense Department to protect the country; does he propose disarming completely? They don’t have a State Department; does he want to stop all foreign aid? They don’t pay out SS; does he propose killing off seniors?
So John, don’t lecture us on how great a job you’re doing until you walk a mile in big boys boots.
Thanks for posting. I forgot to clean the cat’s litter box this morning.
He is angling for the John McCain position.
