Full Title: Hick and Kasich take their bromance to CNN to introduced their bipartisan model to working stuff out

Gov. John Hickenlooper joined BFF and Ohio Gov. John Kasich on a CNN segment released Friday to discuss why the two have decided to join forces to show Democrats and Republicans can be friends.

Speaking to CNN reporter Christiane Amanpour, Kasich, a Republican, claims the two are just “hanging out,” which he said is what happens when you “click with somebody.” And again, this is CNN, not an anonymous People magazine item about celebrities “stepping out.”

He downplayed the potential for the two being more than just friends, like ending up on a split ticket for the White House. There weren’t any direct questions about their respective futures.

“It’s just that we’re friends and we can maneuver through things and we don’t have that many problems anyways. It’s fun,” Kasich said Amanpour asked them how the two have managed to continue their Kumbaya tour during a pretty contentious and bitterly divided era of American politics. Kasich said he and Hickenlooper don’t operate in a zero-sum game.

Hickenlooper, a Democrat, agreed. He said their “relationship” could be a model for others.

“I mean part of it is we’re trying to create a model that we can say, ‘You know, healthcare, big complex issue, but if a Republican governor and a Democratic governor who have to implement the federal policies, if we can find compromise, doesn’t that suggest that Congress should be able to improve things and move forward?” Hickenlooper said.

That model might work if both parties are dipsticks like Chickenpooper and K-sick.

I would be loathe to have anyone accuse me of having friends like Ksick or Chickenpooper.

I agree. Both seem to want their boot on the neck of individual liberty and freedom.

This sounds like the old “No Labels” initiative, a ticket to oblivion, for sure. Go for it John and Hick, make room for people who are serious.

In his twisted mind (he has common sense and decency cells like Warren has Indian DNA), Kasich is the de facto McCain replacement ...
