    Eh, this is mostly a Trump bashing thing, his cut to Ben has been debunked he doesnt want to abolish Medigroup. But of course, Kasich is going hard, I expect him to go lethal on the debate. A lot of things the ten rep mainline field has been saying since the last debate have been about exactly what the CNBC debate is focusing on so there will be some very powerful attacks and tough questions to all ten.

    Kasich doesn't have to vote for those candidates. Maybe he thinks he can do better, but he sure hasn't convince anyone else of this.

    I don't know enough about Kasich, but I like him better than Trump or Carson.

    Democrats tend to like Kasich, what does that tell you?

    You think either Trump or Carson would make a successful president?

    It seems to me like reasonable comments and definitely closer to something I believe can win a national election than what is being said by Trump or Carson.

    Hey Kasich! Nobody gives a flying (*)(*)(*)(*) about you and you know it! That's really what you are crying about. Have a tissue.

    A rock would be a successful president after 8 years of Obama failure.

    McCain was a rino going up againt the not bush crowd. In this election, after 8 years of Obama its the dems who need to do better. Clinton isn't going to cut it against trump in my assessment. The nation now know she lied to us. We have it confirmed. I hope she is the dem candidate. I cant think of a better person for Trump to pick the scabs on.

    Trump understands leadership better than Carson so he would have a better chance of getting things done, but they either one would face an up hill battle in Washington because they are outsiders. People don't play well with outsiders, even the republicans would give them a hard time.

    That Kasich is a moderate, which means he does not have a chance in hell.

    Republicans would have done worse without Palin on the ticket. She was the anti-establishment wave that we are seeing now with Trump and Carson. We're tired of nominated "the only electable republican" RINOs like McCain & Romney, who weren't so electable. We're in need a a big personality like Reagan was. This is why Trump is doing so well. Carson is also part of that anti-establishment vote. They are the anti-Bush vote.

    People don't want a Bush dynasty. Republicans have learned that.

    They also don't want a Clinton dynasty, something democrat's haven't learned.

    I have no understanding of why Mr. Carson is considered a candidate for President. He doesn't have the organization or the political muscle to even make it to the convention. Trump is leading, large still, even with Hispanics, the only question facing the GOP is do they want to lose with Jeb Bush or Marco Rubio to Hillary Clinton, or win with Donald Trump. As for Kasich? What does he have, something like a 4% approval rating in the polls? That is about zero when it comes to elections - he should have already resigned as should Governor Christie and Carly Fiorina. None of them stand a chance at the GOP nomination, which is Trump's to lose. Shesh - would "The Donald" carve up Hillary like a Thanksgiving turkey - love to see it. Would be even more fun if he made Trey Gowdy his campaign manager.

    Trump owns several important campaign commitments. Illegal immigration; re-negotiation of America's trade agreements with foreign countries, particularly Mexico and Asian ones, and you can bet the farm he knows enough hard boiled, tough nut's to crack, hedge fund manager's to appoint into positions where they negotiate for a balance in American trade; and strengthen the military, which has been allowed to be decimated under the Obama administration. You start spending on military again, and lots of companies and jobs spring to life in the economy, the same way they do when car sales are up. None of the other alleged candidates can touch Trump on these issues which are resonating across the country with the Silent Majority. Trump is just toying with Jeb Bush, and Marco Rubio has a zero record of accomplishment in the U.S. Senate, and only four years there. Two more than Obama had, and he has accomplished less.

    So, if the GOP wants the White House in 2016, it now needs Trump, whose other contribution in this campaign, as he has dragged the Republican Party kicking and screaming into modern America, is he has made every single media forum look like idiots. American's, because of Trump, no longer view the news as news, but have finally discovered that what they are being presented with is sensationalism and entertainment. Watching Trump walk over news reporter's is almost as fun as anticipating what he would do to a Hillary Clinton in a debate. If Trump grabs off the GOP nomination, and there is no particular reason why he shouldn't if he plays to win it seriously, and Rick Santorum becomes Speaker, and Trump grabs Mitt Romney as a Vice Presidential candidate - the GOP wins in a walk in 2016, IMO..........:clapping: :flagus:

    Maybe Kasich will cause a big scene at the Debate and the ratings will go through the roof.

    This statement is so Rabelaisian absurd, I don't even know where to begin.

    Since you appear to be rooted in satire, I suggest not even trying, as it's outside of your pay grade and will only confound you.

    If Trump chose Romney as anything, he would lose 90% of his voters, myself included.

    Exactly, Romney is a sellout phony lib with an "R" next to his name.

    He went on a podcast with David Axelrod last week for God's sake complaining about conservative media and how it was so much better for his phony type when the libs had a 100% monopoly on the media.

    He's a LOSER who needs to go away and live a private life away from being a wannabe king maker failed politician.

    I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I'm tired of politicians. Time to vote for an outsider like Fiorina, Carson or Trump.

    Kasich is far too reasonable, actually thinks through things before he speaks on them, doesn't make childish insults about the other candidates, and never says the words Hitler, slavery, or communist when discussing democrats or their policies. In other words he has no chance with the idiocracy like GOP base right now.

    Plus, he doesn't think it makes sense to start another war with a country that hasn't attacked us. How RINO of him.
