John Kasich Came in Fourth in Arizona
Townhall ^ | Mar 23, 2016 | Christine Rousselle

Poor Gov. John Kasich. He can't catch a break.

In Arizona's Republican primary, Kasich actually found himself in fourth place, despite there only being three Republican candidates remaining in the race. Arizona allows early voting nearly a month before the actual election day. Thus, a whole lot of people voted for Marco Rubio before he suspended his campaign last Tuesday--enough to propel him to a third-place finish. Rubio received nearly 23,000 more votes than Kasich.

This, of course, begs the question: why is Kasich still in the race?

It is possible for Cruz to get to 1237. It is not possible for Kasich to do so.

As I said, it’s a long shot, but Cruz at least has a shot.

I know of a bunch of people who voted for Kasich just so Trump wouldn’t get Ohio.

Too bad Trump spent so much time insulting his opponents

At least when Trump insults you, he does to your face. Not hiding behind some PAC, and then claim he knows nothing about it like a cowering little bitch. And posting naked pictures of a mans wife is lower then even what a clinton would do.

Arizona is a mix. Trump won by big margin over Cruz Pima and Maricopa counties. Bigger margin on highly Hispanic Santa Cruz and Cochise counties on the border. Cruz won by small margin in Graham county which is heavily Mormon.

Somebody please explain why Mormons prefer globalist Cruz over Trump.

Ted Cruz has an actual shot at the nomination — a long shot, granted, but a real shot. John Kasich does not. He’d have to win 117 percent of the delegates remaining to get to 1237.

What I'm hearing out of your lips is that you're going to encourage Cruz to leave when Cruz doesn't have a shot at the nomination.

I don’t know, if Bernie posted naked pictures of Bill Clinton (Hillary’s wife) on the internet it would probably help him

Kasich came in fourth, but how many votes did Huckabee and the rest of the former GOP candidates get? I hear that they were on the ballot, too.

“To be Trump’s VP”

The chances are greater that Gov. Chris Crispie will give up politics for a cicus job as the Human Cannonball.

Because the caucus there was a fraud.

Yeah, like the others didn’t do any of it! Talk about cognative dissonance! You need to lay off the sauce.

Of course they get around that by “suspending” their campaigns. That also allows them to keep begging money.
