Kasich, quit trying to save the party and work to help defeat Clinton.

No Kasich you believe a contested convention is best because you are a RINO loser the GOP voting base has rejected. You and your new BFF Luz need to GTFO!

What could happen in Cleveland if the “process” isn’t appreciated by delegates if the nomination is stolen from Trump is in Kasich’s state. Doesn’t he give a damn?

John... John... John...

Ain't gonna happen.

As for your co-conspirator, Cruz, he was agonizing at the same time about the GOP being dysfunctional, will implode and "fractionalize" if Trump is not defeated.

Hot flash...
The GOPe, ol' boys club and corrupt crone capitalist burglars began fractionalizing as soon as it became obvious that Trump was serious and attracting tens of millions of really pissed off citizen/taxpayers...

Paraphrasing the *itch Dianne Sweinstein...

That's reality.
DEAL WITH IT!

Trump has to court delegates, court Cruz, or court Kasich.

I’ve been saying for a long time that Trump should be courting the delegates aggressively. I checked tonight with some contacts, and he’s not anywhere the level he needs to be in that category.

Cruz has the best delegate operation in the party. If Trump will court Cruz and trade him a Supreme Court nomination for the right support at the right time, I will consider that a double win.

As for Kasich, he is a big government liberal who supports the Assault Weapons Ban, expanded Obamacare over the objection of his legislature, supports Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, and opposes religious freedom. Kasich is completely unacceptable, and even a deal with him is out of the question.

Whichever path Trump plans to take, it’s time to get his act in gear. Yes, I know, he’s going to win it on the first ballot. Maybe. But what’s his back-up plan?

Has an open convention ever produced a nominee that has won the general election?

Cruz, Kasich and the GOPe crowd are sick and delusional.

Kasich is trying to save the Uniparty, Clinton included.

Kasich could care less about voters, same with Cruz.

What is it with all these politicians that use the royal “we” when referring to themselves? Do they not know how that sounds, and what it conveys?

I would be careful with Kasich, he reminds me of the kind of wacko who is out of touch and if he does not get a V.P. he may pull a gun

There must be a reason why many of the talking heads on Fox most of the afternoon were referring to him as Krasich...

And the new name fit.

Especially after Trump humiliated him over the eating like a slob thing. But I also worry about Cruz going postal.

Hope SS doesn't skip the check because they know them.
