"Donald Trump, now the GOP's presumptive presidential nominee, said Wednesday he would consider Ohio Gov. John Kasich as a potential running mate."
(Excerpt) Read more at newsmax.com ...
erm, yes; CRUZe was “quite the competitor” - and it should end at that... ;)
Well, I guess Ohio is important for us....
Anyone hearing Gingrich in any of these speculations?
Yeah, and if my Basset Hound had won Ohio in the primary he’d consider Jake the Basset as well.
“A possible deal killer to me ...”
A VP pick?
that’s not a vp pick - the likes of kasich would be a betrayal.
If polls are tight and we need Ohio they will be.
I was hoping he would consider Scott Walker. It would help him carry a state that is harder to win. I think Trump can win Ohio without Kasich.
Considering is fine.
BUT DO NOT DO IT.
” ok, of course he’s just playing “nice” atm; not only would a pick of this soros milquetoast be considered quite the betrayal, for myself and many others i know, it would be the last...
TRUMP: NONE OF THE 16 PRIMARY CANDIDATES FOR VP.
he needs a bold torchbearer pick - no reagan/bush repeat mistake...”
Agreed! I’d be more than disappointed if Trump even put KSICK on his list!
At this point, it would seem so since it’s gonna come down to just two. Or, I suppose, Bernie, since that’s the only other possibility.
It’ll never happen. He’s being diplomatic.
Yes. Little Marco was mentioned by Trump as a possible VP. Now Kasich. Cruz would consolidate the conservative support perhaps. But Texas is already in the bag. Florida and Ohio are not.
I’m trying to find the news in the article.
Yeah, I doubt he’d be necessary to swing Ohio once it gets to the big one.
the map will change, and trump would still win without any globalist establishment vp pick!~
Kasich probably locks in Ohio. Whatever his limitations as a national candidate, they appear to love the guy there.
After all he won the last Gov election with 64%, which was 14 points MORE than Caliph Baraq got there.
And let’s face it, any Trump VP is gonna basically be a ceremonial job, just like SlowJoe was for Baraq.
It’s going to be a female conservative, and will surprise everyone (no, not Palin).
newt is smiling like a Buddha..
” ... the likes of kasich would be a betrayal.”
Did you feel betrayed by Reagan’s choice of Bush I as his VP? I’ve been voting since 1972, and I never once allowed my vote to be influenced by my preferred candidate’s VP pick.
