Trump's friends have already admitted Mike__M Apr 2016 #53

Maybe Kasich and Sanders can run a mock election and pretend it's for third place n/t SFnomad Apr 2016 #9

Heehee! I like that. Bet that sly snark will get you slammed by Sanders supporters though. brush Apr 2016 #10

Funny since Kasich supported the Clinton's disastrous budget Kittycat Apr 2016 #35

Clinton's disastrous budget? The one that got us a balanced budget and a simultaneously SFnomad Apr 2016 #37

I guess it depends on how you look at it... Kittycat Apr 2016 #49

That ticket is conceivable, but can it win? Hmmm TheDormouse Apr 2016 #16

Why do people think Kasich won't get the GOP nomination? TheDormouse Apr 2016 #17

Polling average? Cali_Democrat Apr 2016 #26

"They"? Which they do you mean? TheDormouse Apr 2016 #20

M$M mostly. They have been ignoring those polls saying Hillary does better in the GE even though litlbilly Apr 2016 #24

What constitutes a good day to you? nt hack89 Apr 2016 #25

win PA, Ct, RI and tie in the rest. It's still all about turnout and who counts the votes. litlbilly Apr 2016 #27

Too many closed primaries, don't you think? hack89 Apr 2016 #29

true, but at least they didnt have to chose what to do 6 months ago like NY. Maybe that'll litlbilly Apr 2016 #32

No reason to think there will be big problems with vote counting hack89 Apr 2016 #36

There is overwhelming evidence that there is election fraud going on. It doesnt really matter litlbilly Apr 2016 #41

It didn't favor Hillary in NY. She lost votes. hack89 Apr 2016 #48

I wouldn't say that there has been a conspiracy, Svafa Apr 2016 #60

Kasich v Sanders represents a match up that will never happen Godhumor Apr 2016 #21

What about a Cruz/Kasich ticket? That would strategically be a decent move from the Repub party, Svafa Apr 2016 #61
