NBC reporting Kasich will suspend his campaign this afternoon.   As expected when change in venue announced and speech was moved to Ohio.
Roy Moore's "spiritual warfare" is driving past a junior high without stopping.

Anybody have any questions now whether Johnny was just in there as a spoiler for Cruz?

Kasich is a genuine loser and POS. I hope he does another confetti drop for his announcement and suffocates.

Never had any doubt.  Maybe the lying, back-stabbing, POS will endorse Donny and Donny will make him his VP.

Actually, Kasich was there to protect Cruz and give him time to win delegates.   Ohio election laws states that should the winner of the PA primary drop out, suspend his or her campaign, the delegates will automatically move to the 2nd place winner.  The 2nd place winner was Donald Trump.  Kasich did not what his 154 delegates moving to Trump. 

Now that Cruz has dropped out, Kasich's is a plan without a reason.

Please. Kasich should have dropped out WAY before PA. The entire race would have changed if he dropped out at a reasonable time and gave Cruz a chance to be a viable alternative.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

You're going to get what you ask for. A lot of it. I'll enjoy reading your comments about how good life is under Madam President.

Get the hell out of here. Kasich shafted Cruz at every turn. If your scenario was even mildly correct, the agreement would have held past the ink drying.

Wait. What?

Ohio election laws make reference to PA results? That is the weirdest thing I have heard in a whille.

Big whip, he should have dropped out way before the primaries have even started.

I am sure as hell going to like it much more than that garbage Trump is selling. I own a business. Stability is a great thing even if the climate sucks. I'll hobble along with another 4 years of this disaster than have to readjust to tariff wars, nationalizing banks, shutting down the free press, targeted assassinations and on and on.

When you have two Leftist crooks to choose from, I'll chose the one who will at least stay quite after the election.

Oh yeah baby.  Kasich and Trump have been secretly meeting all this time to gang up on Cruz.

For sure.

But you did get the second part right.

Damn.   

I guess it's Gary Johnson, then.

  Gary Johnson targets #NeverTrump voters after Cruz drops out

Quote
Describing himself as the only viable small-government candidate left in the race, Mr. Johnson said Tuesday night that “the table for November’s election is set.”

“[The Cruz] departure from the race, along with the likely nomination of Hillary Clinton by the Democrats, makes it clear that neither of the two ‘major parties’ will offer voters in November a small government candidate,” Mr. Johnson said in a statement. “What they are offering voters are two of the most polarizing candidates in recent history.”

?? The fact that Kasich was a spoiler for Cruz or the fact that Kasich is a genuine POS?  I have no doubt that Trump/Kasich alliance was formed when Cruz won IA.  If you noticed, Trump NEVER went after Kasich.  Secondly, Kasich didn't have the funds to continue .. Donny gave him money to stay in to block Cruz.  As for Kasich being a POS ...I received an e-mail this morning from his campaign asking for money because he's the only one now that can defeat Donny.  Yep... I think that classifies him as a royal scum bag.

So you assume an imperial presidency? Whoever is elected can do as they wish with no restraint? And you also assume that Trump will do EVERYTHING bad, while Clinton will pull back and moderate?

What color is the sky in your world?

There was a Trump/Christie alliance and a Trump/Carson alliance.. So I won't be surprised if there was a Trump/Kasich alliance.
