Republican presidential candidate John Kasich is reminding voters that before Mitt Romney was voting for Ted Cruz, he was campaigning for Kasich.
Romney, the 2012 GOP presidential nominee, announced Friday that he will be voting for Cruz in Utah’s caucuses this week.
But a new ad by Kasich shows Romney supporting the Ohio governor at campaign events last week.
“Unlike the other people running, he has a real track record. If you want to see that balanced budget, if you want to get rid of ObamaCare, we’ve got to turn out and make sure we send a signal loud and clear,” Romney says in the clip.
“America is counting on you. A great governor of a great state, John Kasich.”
Romney announced his intention to vote for Cruz in a Facebook post, saying a vote for Kasich makes it more likely that Donald Trump wins the GOP nomination.
“At this stage, the only way we can reach an open convention is for Senator Cruz to be successful in as many of the remaining nominating elections as possible,” Romney said. “A vote for Governor Kasich in future contests makes it extremely likely that Trumpism would prevail.”

Kasich wants Romney’s Support? Trump gains 3 points! lol
That’s pretty funny. Romney can’t make up his mind. It’s not like he was backing Kasich and he lost. He won and still Mitt is supporting someone else now. What a tool this guy is. In his opinion it doesn’t matter who you vote for as long as you can get him to the convention where he can manipulate the process for 5 ballots and fufill the Mormon prophecy of the Mormon President who saves the country. You know Utah, if you vote for Trump and Arizona votes for Trump this thing will be over on Tuesday...Just saying
It would be wiser for Kasich to wash the stench of Romney off, not remind people of it. Romney now sticks to Cruz like the fetid smell of D.C. corruption.
Hey John! You and Ted can meet the Redlight’s best street corner.
Wear your best,
Mitt
Johnnie served his purpose. That was Ohio. Bubye.
OK, so forget Kasich and Cruz.
Romney doesn’t exactly have a winning track record.
Kasich being butt-hurt about Romney using him is funny. Now that he’s won the only state he was going to win and he is no longer useful, the RNC/GOP throws him aside and turns to using Cruz to try to stop Trump. Romney said he’s only backing Cruz to stop Trump, not to nominate Cruz.
The goal is to prevent the citizens from electing a President that stops the illegal alien inundation.
Cruz playing along diminshes greatly any respect I had for him.
Oh John I’m so sorry that Mitt has turned on you, but hey it is for the goal you wanted. To stop Trump. What, it was to get you to the White House? You really are a DREAMER like the ones you want to welcome with open arms. Ah, the heartbreak of disillusionment. A vaunted hero one day, and the scapegoat the next. It is after all the establishment way, sucker. What will happen Ted when he fails? Retreat to Canada?
Kaysick is being discarded like used toilet tissue!
His support was just to deny Trump 66 delegates. Now that Kasich is no longer needed he is off to the last remaining hope. At least he has his millions to console him when that plan fail, because it wasn’t Romney that helped win Ohio for Kasich. That honor goes to the Republican political machine in Ohio.
I am pretty sure Cruz will win Utah...but I know many Mormons that say they are voting Trump. They say only the elite Mormons listen to Romney- as far as they are concerned Romney is not a “good” Mormon.
The bodies under Mitt’s bus are just a little less than Obama’s.
Trump should run an add :
I Am THE ONLY candidate in the race that Romney has not supported in the last week!
Johnny, it’s not about you, it’s about stopping Trump. You are just a pawn in the greater scheme of things.
John Kasich On Illegal Aliens:
1) “God Bless” Illegal Immigrants
Illegal immigrants are a “critical part of our society,” John Kasich told the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce last October.
“For those that are here that have been law abiding, God bless them,” Kasich said—arguing that illegals “should have a path to legalization.”
2) “I couldn’t imagine” enforcing our current immigration laws: “That is not… the kind of values that we believe in.”
On the GOP debate stage in February, Kasich told millions of American voters that enforcing the nation’s immigration laws is not “the kind of values that we believe in.”
“I couldn’t even imagine how we would even begin to think about taking a mom or a dad out of a house when they have not committed a crime since they’ve been here, leaving their children in the house,” Kasich said. “That is not, in my opinion, the kind of values that we believe in.”
3) Kasich likened deporting the illegal population to Japanese internment camps
“To think that that we’re just going to put people on buses and ship them to the border—look at our World War II experience where we quarantined Japanese—
I mean it’s a dark stain on America’s history,” Kasich said in November.
So Romney was happy to get Trump’s endorsement 8 years ago and said very kind words about Trump. Then suddenly Trump is absolutely horrible...so says Romney. Then Romney campaigns for Kasich saying nice things about him including “if you want to get rid of ObamaCare, we’ve got to turn out and make sure we send a signal loud and clear” (says the architect of Romneycare), then he switches to Cruz!
What a whore!!!
