It has to exist.
Even the NRA endorsed his Demonrat opponent in his OH Gov race!
Kasich is a anti-gun a-hole!
Kasich is a snake! I loath that bastard.
Kasich for Postmaster General so he can spend 8 years running around saying...”my daddy was a mailman”!

I think Kasich will stay in for his own reasons even if he loses Ohio, #1, as possible VP and #2, as the establishment’s safe choice at a brokered convention.
I hope he does because he will split the not-Trump vote with Cruz, while not preventing Trump from racking up the WTA states.
Six points is worrisomely low.
We need to extend that lead.
Hopefully the wins in Michigan and Mississippi will deflate the talk about a Trump ‘fade’ and will propel Trump higher.
Thanks, I’m in IL so I can relate...
Pennsylvania, my state, still has the homestead exemption for seniors. If Kasich cut it in Ohio, I’ll never vote for that money-grabber for Pres.
All good and decent and right-thinking people!!!
Yeah, there needs to be some new polls out after yesterday, Trump should pick up some MO.
It’s going to be close here. I don’t see any sort of major shift coming in the next week. Whoever wins, wins by under 5.
The polls have been a disaster.
In Florida, homestead just takes 25K off your assessment. In Ohio homestead literally means no taxes for seniors? Or used to?
Kasich is the absolute Washington insider. Nine terms in the House and he needed cash to fund that career, from special interests. And who paid for his Governor campaign.
Then he went through the revolving door to Lehman Bros. where with no banking experience he landed a job as investment banker and managing director.
Kasich 2008 return and 2009 financial disclosure statement $590,000 (his bonus was $432,000) from Lehman.
Huge Lehman Brothers payouts report recalls Gov. Kasich's time at firm
Kasich goes down in Ohio he’s out... he’s smart enough and the party has nothing to offer him worth him sticking around to try to stop Trump.
Rubio on the other hand may be more than willing to sell his soul if he loses Florida in order to gain something from his failure of a campaign. He’s not running for re-election to his senate seat, and if he loses FL in the primary he pretty much is politically dead as any sort of electable candidate, so he may be willing to trade sticking around in exchange for some sort of appointment or payoff by the party.
“Not so fast. If Trump wins OH and FL, he would be on track for a PLURALITY of delegates, but he could still be deprived of a majority.”
LOL, sure...you keep telling yourself that. If Trump wins any four of the five or all it is pretty much over.
I'm not sure what the heck is going on right now, but it smells bad, he may get out or he's waiting for something to go down at the convention.
The polls, and thinking, show that Trump vs. Cruz, without the others, yields Cruz victories. Of course, these are the same polls that underestimate Cruz’ final count from 5 to 20%. Your results may vary.
Trump only has to win the majority in one more state to meet the requirements for rule 40. I believe Cruz needs four more.
