"Kasich needs to quit"....all democratic/Trump strategists agree...lol...

In a hypothetical contest for the presidency, a new national poll finds that Ohio Gov. John Kasich would be the most likely Republican candidate to beat Democrat Hillary Clinton....The poll’s hypothetical contests put Kasich over Clinton 49 to 38 percent; and Rubio over Clinton 48 to 42 percent. The contests with Ted Cruz and Trump would be much closer — Cruz led 45 percent to Clinton’s 44 percent, and Trump led 45 percent to Clinton’s 43 percent. New poll shows Ohio Gov. John Kasich most likely Republican to beat Hillary Clinton

Kasich sits around 10 points ahead of Hillary in a general election result..the others less than that. Trump is in the category worst of all. Cruz is a Canadian...and don't think that ain't getting brought up by HillBilly every debate she might have with him. Rube-io is an establishment puppet...Hillary will glean votes by simply saying that to Trump's erstwhile followers over and over like hypnosis (to which they seem very susceptible to...obviously..) "he's establishment..he'll sell out your jobs like all the others..."

And Trump? Well look for him to be involuntarily strapped in a tight white suit as his performance in the primaries keeps slipping and slipping and slipping. He will be foaming at the mouth and even his most ardent pie-eyed devotees will begin to wake up and sense the danger.

Who is left is Kasich. Hillary can't attack his foreign policy experience. Hillary can't slight his foxhole performance as a governor, creating jobs where there was a crisis in Ohio...and balancing that against environmental concerns.

In fact, Kasich is Hillary, minus the scandals and adding in a more devoted stance towards conservative principles. If he could add a bit more emphasis to how hard he will fight for traditional marriage restoration of the decision to the states, he would absorb quite a few left of center in Hillary's camp who privately believe all children should have both a mother and father...

Of course, Kasich with a conservative sweep in the Senate, preserving more conservative House would be the safety net for the far right freaking out about a Kasich POTUS. A president can't legislate anyway.
 
Not that Kasich is a bad candidate, but unless Clinton gets indicted its hard to envision that he could beat Clinton and the media with their double standard of reporting. At least Trump has the resources to hammer Clinton endlessly and mercilessly. You can't measure the polls now, but after Hillary gets pilloried for a few months. Gun control will cost her, Bill will cost her, Bill's bimbos will cost her, Obama fatigue will cost her, the unions will abandon her, Bernie's legions will abandon her and her unfair "superdelagates", essentially every policy she touched turns to crap. She will chase more corporations and jobs overseas.
 
No one. The Republican party and/or conservative vote can't win a general election in today's delegate demographics. We need this general election to be between four candidates for the Republican party to win. Trump is going to run as a third party candidate. Someone on the left needs to do the same thing


I'd think Kasich/Rubio would have a decent chance.

.
I just don't understand you people. Are you serious? No one cares for these people in their party's primary but just suddenly in a general election they're going to be in demand enough to beat Hillary? You aren't just beating Hillary. It's the Democratic party. The American people swing left and even if they aren't big fans of Hillary they will still support the party

Totally agree that the boring establishment GOP options won't win in a general election, however, the motivated Trump voters will all turn out. Trump puts a lot of dem states in play, and Hillary's gun control pitch puts many more in play. Romney had his chance and blew it. If the GOP establishment doesn't vote for Trump I hope the dems tax them into oblivion.

Neither Cruz nor Trump are suited for POTUS.

They are both sociopaths and narcissists.

The GOP has really fucked itself.

This is Teabagger's revenge. They GOP is reaping what is sowed.

OK, so you can vote for Hillary, she isn't presidential timber either. We'll count the chickens in November. Obama proved that anyone can be president, no experience required. The country keeps running.

Well...who of the four 'boring' GOP candidates would win if they had to run against Hillbilly tomorrow?
 
Kasich is the only one to beat Hillary by sucking away many of her votes..
 
Sure, two far right candidates would rope in all kinds of former Trump moderate supporters ...hey...wait a minute.... ^^ you're a democrat strategist right?
