I think Kasich made it quite evident that it is a Cruz hail Mary and that while verbally agreed upon, not so much in reality. Kasich wants as many delegates as he can get going into Cleveland.
I think other states are just as important as Ohio. Kasich is playing for the Veep position. It’s obvious to me now.
But I think Arizona is just as important, or perhaps Pennsylvania or New Jersey. They all look like possible pick-ups now.
Kasich undercut it almost immediately.
And when I listened to Cruz campaigning yesterday saying, “Kasich has ended his campaign for Indiana” or something like that, the first thing that popped into my mind was Iowa. It sounded like what so many had imagined his Iowa operatives to have whispered about Ben Carson on the sly.
But it was in the open. And then Kasich knifed him.
