I actually haven't seen a lot of inconsistency in his positions. Do any come to mind? Kasich is a straight shooter. Pretty much the only one who didn't come out of this election looking like a weakling or a shithead.


Really? Seriously? That is how you perceive Kasich to be?

Hell, I thought he came out of the election not only looking like a weakling and shithead but also clearly he has hypocritical RINO plastered all over him. He is disloyal, self-serving and egocentric.

Trump won Ohio despite all of Kasich's bullshite.

I've never RAed on here and think the board admins are too hard on some folk.
Well apparently they like me now? Maybe they have Russian handlers who told them to give me some leeway to see where it goes. I've had half a dozen posts whacked with no attendant admin warnings in the last few months, and Karla claims they told him I'm protected. I guess I'd give if frick if I could muster it.

I'd rather they start cracking down on the bullshite headline threads. "Lynch said to protect Hillary!" etc
Could have used your input in that thread.

But alas...

I was told after the fact that it's because I played a role in Karla's meltdown by saying she was having a meltdown.

I'd say I just got caught up in it all and they didn't want to back down from it.

Oh well. Built my street cred up a bit.

What private message did they send you when they banned you?

Did you ever get messages that ended with "thanks"? If so, that is chicken

Hillary Clinton had more to do with that than Kasich or Trump.

Generally blah blah blah take a break.

The last couple were teasing, and having seen a number of PMs, I knew they were from a new admin. Maybe you?

Gotten more of those than I can remember. They were warnings, though. They weren't bannings.

Well then it appears chicken is the admin that is profiling you

I have no clue who admins this board. It used to be LA, but not anymore. It's probably chicken

I have some insight into that, actually. A lot of it from LA.

You're just jealous that Trump had the coolest, boldest and eye popping stage design ever seen at the RNC.

Compared with these mediocre, boring and lame setups in 2012 and 2008.

Not when you win Ohio by 8+ points and consistently polled in the lead there since September pretty well even when the polls were biased in favor of Hillary. RCP average was Trump +2. It was +8 on election day.

It was an 11 point swing from 2012 when they voted Obama. Ohio voted for Trump more than they voted against Hillary.

Trump lost the primary in Ohio and consistently polled behind everyone not named Hillary. He won Ohio because he wasn't Hillary, not because he was Trump.

Nope. "ABC" was the joke going around before Trump was even considered a serious candidate. Voters stuck to that.

Anecdotally, nearly everyone I know made comments about their votes along the lines of "I don't like Trump, but Hillary is terrible."

My man.

I voted for him in the primary.

I voted for him in the presidential election.

And I'll vote for him in 2020.

He was always the only adult in any debate during the last election cycle.

Trump lost the primary in Ohio


He lost the primary in a 4 way race to the hometown favorite Governor by 11 points, 46-35, with Rubio and Cruz taking votes at 16%.

Big deal.

This is the primary map. A lot of white working class that voted for Kasich that also voted for Trump in the primary.



Bush couldn't get past 5% in Ohio in 2 tries. Trump blew past that. Ohio voted for Trump more than they voted for Hillary. Period.

Oh and you're ignoring the trend that Ohio has gotten redder and redder than normal in recent years.

Nope, those kind of states are Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania that loathed Hillary and you could see that in the close margins. Hillary had turnout failure in those 3 states and thus lost the election because of it.

The ABC states were Wisky, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

No, it didn't. He lost, but I'm fine with the campaign he ran.

2. He was a sore loser about it, and didn't even show up to a convention in his own state, which is something that even officials from opposing parties customarily do.


That makes me like him even more.

This is the wrong year to get your arse hurt over customs and courtesies.

3. He accepted money from Soros, showing his true colors.


Even if this were true (it isn't), it would be dwarfed by the amount Trump accepted from Soros.]


Wrong

Yet Clinton was the only one Trump could match up with. Odd.

[ Kasich is a tee total POS, I don't care who you are. He wouldn't even send in a video message to the republican convention in his home state he is Governor of. He is a sore loser. No class... ]
