    it is quite the spectacle seeing the entire GOP scurry like rats trying to get anyone in office other than not one of them. not sure ive seen anything like it to this degree. their fear is legit. and its not because they are worried about the country.

    Another career politician focused on climbing the political ladder and advancing his political career. He's been part of the problem for years. But definitely the best candidate in the race that is owned by the party establishment.

    In his NINE terms in the House of Representatives he was a strong fiscal conservative. Other than that, he had no policies, just talking points like most career politicians.

    Kaisich really hasn't done a thing except take away collective bargaining rights and raised taxes on the bottom 60 percent while cutting for the 1 percent.

    Being a strong fiscal conservative is the best thing I have ever heard

    And all Republicans claim to be one. I'm tired of hearing politicians flap their gums. Kasich is owned by the party, just like the rest of them, but like I said, I'd take him over any of the others left.

    If Trump blows up the party the only thing rising from the ashes will be Hillary. The only way we are saved from that is the FBI doing their job. Then we get Bernie. Because I don't see anyone putting the Elephant back together this year if it turns into a brokered convention. To much pent up anger to work through. To many people see their way as pure and everything else as traitorous gutless political sellout.
    Then there is the irony you couldn't make up. The very people that say compromise equates to sellout of principal are falling all over the guy who brags about negotiation. Which is another word for compromise. And they have no idea what the core principals are that he will negotiate from. And they don't give a shit.
