Quote:Any decent man would hope not. Nominating Kasich is basically bending over for Hillary Clinton's Rodham.

I don't think so. He's had one big gaffe in this campaign, unless you count openly lamenting about how Donald Trump, Ben Carson and Ted Cruz have killed the GOP to be a gaffe. He carries a lot of weight in the upper Midwest, and is close enough to center that a lot of moderates and/or people who plan to vote for Hillary purely to keep Trump away might flock to him. Ideologically, though, he is a true conservative.

 

From the first debate, he was my second choice to Rand Paul. With Rand long since out of it, me having all kinds of unreconcilable issues with Bernie and Cruz hanging by a thread, he's climbed back up to the top. I'm hoping against hope that the Republican Party strings this into a brokered convention and hands it to Kasich. Long shot, I know, but he can and would beat Hillary, and he wouldn't put on the biggest clown show since Jimmy Carter if he did.
