Kasich: Seriously, you guys, I can win this
CBS News ^ | May 3, 2016 | Erica Brown

Posted on 05/04/2016 4:51:03 AM PDT by kevcol

Reacting to Cruz's exit, Kasich tweeted his support saying the Senator "should be proud of his strong and disciplined campaign" and added that Texans were "lucky" to have him represent them.

Taking advantage of a narrow opportunity to garner financial support after Cruz ended his White House bid, Kasich's campaign also blasted out a fundraising email to supporters, soliciting donations as the only candidate who can "stop Trump and unify the party."

Kasich continues to defend his staying in the race, touting his electability as the only Republican candidate equipped to beat Hillary Clinton in the fall, and hopes his message of "hope" and "inclusion" resonates with Republican voters.

I would love to see Kasich removed from the stage in a straitjacket.

Kasich is scheduled to attend private fundraising events this week and will host two press conferences in the Washington, DC area.

Follow the money!

Is that photoshopped, or a direct screen shot of the MSNBC program?

“Kasich’s campaign also blasted out a fundraising email to supporters, soliciting donations....”

How much of those donations will wind up in the tip jar at IHOP?John, enough with the pancakes! Get back to Ohio and the business of running the state’s business.

The only way he can win is if he knows something we don’t know....like, the will of the American people does not matter, the whole things was decided long ago, or we will all be dust by November....What a corrupt bozo, him and so many others. Sad state we are in for sure.

Yes, money talks. But whoring oneself, as K is doing, takes its toll, even in politics.

Trump might offer Kasich a future position as the head of a Cabinet-level Department that DJT intends to eliminate completely.

“Seriously, you guys, I can win this” must be the Ohio version of Bubba’s famous “Hold Mu beer and watch this!”

As an Ohioan this is beyond embarrassing but if it keeps him busy and out of the state it’s a net plus for us!
