John Kasich Could Win a Contested Convention … And No One Would Vote For Him in The General Election

WELL THAT’S ABOUT ALL HE WOULD WIN …

The Politico is reporting that Ohio Governor and GOP presidential candidate could win a Republican contested convention if the GOP primaries fail to produce one candidate with the necessary delegates for nomination. Kasich has won one state, his own. Oh sure, lets nominate the third place guy. Hell, why don’t you just nominate Jeb Bush while you are at it. Two things here; one, consider the source and two, it would be about the only thing that Kasich wins because if the Republican Establishment pond scum ever manipulated such a happening, no one would vote for him in the general election. Let alone, if the GOP establishment ever screwed Donald Trump over like this, his supporters would stay home and Trump might even run as a third party candidate.

A note to the ignorant and power hungry Republican establishment, right now Donald Trump and Ted Cruz are first and second in the Republican primaries. The two individuals who are considered political outsiders. Are you getting the message from the American people yet? THEY HATE THE GOP ESTABLISHMENT AND WANT YOU ALL GONE!!! If you pull a stunt like nominating the establishment guy who you like, you will feel the wrath of the electorate that has not been seen in years. The people are sick of the GOP establishment making promises to get elected and then doing nothing. We are sick of your lies. If you meddle in this process and do not do right by the GOP base, in 2016 the Republicans will lose the presidency, the House and the Senate.

In the event of a contested Republican convention this summer, John Kasich is the candidate most acceptable to GOP delegates.

That’s according to members of The POLITICO Caucus – a panel of political insiders in seven battleground states – who said Kasich would be the most palatable of the three remaining Republican presidential candidates in a contested convention, despite the fact the Ohio governor is last in delegates and the only one mathematically eliminated from clinching a majority before the July convention.

The verdict was hardly unanimous: Only a 45-percent plurality of GOP insiders said Kasich was most acceptable, with the others divided between Ted Cruz (33 percent) and Donald Trump (22 percent).

But insiders said Kasich has alienated fewer Republicans, and his campaign – he has thus far declined to participate in the personal back-and-forth that has defined much of the Republican race – has left him better positioned to court delegates who are supporting, or bound to, other candidates.

“John is the only candidate that is left on the stage that has crossover appeal to all factions of the party,” added a New Hampshire Republican. “The way he has conducted himself in this election has offered him the opportunity to be an acceptable choice for the delegates. Everyone else will be carrying deep battle scars into Cleveland. John will be able to bring different factions together where others can’t.”
