#1 John Kasich: I'd consider nominating Merrick Garland to Supreme Court.

Almost as stupid as Donald Trump badmouthing Mitt Romney in Utah, Idaho, and Arizona.

The Y2 Analytics survey [Salt Lake Tribune March 19, 2016] shows Cruz with 53% support among likely Republican voters.
Coming in second is John Kasich with 29%, while Trump was a distant third at 11%.
If Cruz gets above the 50% threshold he'll win all of the state's 40 GOP delegates.

Ted Cruz has already wrapped up all but 2 of 29 possible delegates in Idaho.
Kasich has 1 Idaho delegate. Marco Rubio still holds 1 delegate. Trump won 0 delegates in Idaho. 15 more Idaho delegates will be awarded at the Republican Convention, but with 67% of the vote they will go to Cruz.

Arizona is still a toss up ?
There are no published polls done in Arizona since Marco Rubio dropped out of the race.

The winner of Tuesday's Arizona primary, in the winner-take-all state, will get all 58 of its delegates.

At this point it appears that the winner in Arizona will depend on the number of votes Kasich takes away from either Trump or Cruz.

A major gaffe by Kasich could be decisive not only in Arizona but other states on down the road.

#2 This illustrates why Kasich isn't getting votes in the primaries.

#3 ...Sadly, John Kasich is what passes for a Republican in Ohio these days. Ignore him.

#5 someone (Ace?) said Kasich's face looks like it was left in the pocket of a pair of jeans that went through the washing machine. His smarmy sanctimonious "I'm the adult" shit doesn't work for me

#6 Never like his tired, 'and there I was in Ohio' line. Still don't.
