Republican presidential candidate John Kasich appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday. During the interview, Kasich suggested to host Chuck Todd that rival Ted Cruz should drop out of the GOP race.
“Maybe Ted ought to get out because he can’t win in the fall,” the Ohio governor said.

“Maybe these people that are hot on that ought to tell him to do it. You know, they tried to tell me to get out of the race how many times, Chuck?” he asked Todd. “And now they should be thanking me for staying in because if Trump did win Ohio it would have been over.”
“If you thought your candidacy were helping Donald Trump, not hurting him, would you get out?” Todd asked.
“Chuck, I’m running for president — this isn’t a parlor game of who gets this and who gets that,” Kasich responded.
Todd challenged Kasich’s claims, saying that by recognizing a convention as his only path to the presidency, the Ohio governor is engaging in “the ultimate parlor game.”
Kasich proceded to compare his decision to stay in the race to former president Ronald Reagan, mentioning the speech Reagan gave at the 1976 Republican National Convention:
“I was there in ’76 when Reagan challenged the sitting president,” Kasich said. “They didn’t like him doing it either, but you know, his vision and his message mattered.”
Kasich = Establishment = Problem
Go fcuk of John, you’re drunk on Hellry!
That’s fcuking GROSS!
John who?
Wow, I think that did the trick. I’m officially burned out on this bull shit. I’ll tune back in after trumps secured the nomination.
One thing Kasich has to offer (not that it’s a good thing) is an ego the size of which has yet to be measured.
It’s a sure sign how the ‘republican’ party has turned democrat.
I’m repeating from the previous Kasich post.
Has he had a lobotomy?
Now there’s a man who is crying out for an EEG and an FMRI. He reminds me of three different stroke sufferers I’ve known.
Plain Jane,
If he has they were 90 degrees off.
He wins one state and now he’s all ego.
Kasich Says Ted Cruz Should Get Out of the Race Because He’s a November Loser
– says the January loser, the February loser, the March loser, the……
Come on John, fer Chrissake! You’re no REAGAN, and you fucking well know it. GTFO!!!
Why is Kastich not quitting…..cause he knows who is going to win.
So little time, so many karate moves to perfect…
Anyone remember this turd was the deciding vote on the Assault Weapons Ban? He was.
Pray for Ohioans. 2 more years of this numbskull as Governor.
@ Uncle Al
I think you are on to something with Kasich. The sad, sad thing is that the pols use to their own ends, people who obviously have some physical or trauma condition that may skew their judgement. Am also thinking Gabby Giffords here – she was pro 2 A.
He thinks he’s a player in the convention with the delegates from Ohio.
Funny little boy thinks he can play with the adults.
And I don’t have a clue what Ohioans were thinking voting for this tool….and I live here.
Didn’t see the interview; did Kasich raise the point that Cruz’ father was not a mailman?
Goerge Soros gives Kasich $500000 so he can stay in the race and Ted Cruz gives carly Fiorina $$$ last summe for same reason………….the answers are right here>>>>

@Unsung. The same site had a couple pieces last November, I think, about the rule changes in 2014 being designed to get Bush the nomination. Trump wrecked that plan, but it appears Kasich could be the unintended beneficiary. No difference to the RNC.
We all need more of
this sort of political humor!
TO Uncle Al
I’m not a medical person, but could it be that Kasich has been dancing with brick walls? His face looks it.
Choot this piece of chit.
Boy, if only the sons of mailmen were as dedicated to delivering the mail as they are to running for President!
Given that he’s everywhere on the campaign trail and TV, who’s running Ohio?
