From RyanLovelace yesterday at The Washington Examiner (beware of the link; it’s a user-UNfriendly
website):
Ohio
Gov. John Kasich said he isn't willing to serve as anyone's vice president, but
he indicated party affiliation would not matter to him when choosing his own
running mate.
After
losing the Arizona primary and trailing a candidate who is no longer running for
president, Kasich hit the campaign trail in Wisconsin and told voters only he
could beat the Democrats in November.
He
ruled out the possibility of serving with any GOP nominee, but would not oppose
putting a Democrat near the top of the Republican ticket himself in November.
“I'm
going to be nobody's vice president, OK?” Kasich said, interrupting a
questioner at a town hall in Wauwatosa. "I will not be anybody's vice
president. Just so you know."
So, he
won’t run for Vice President on the GOP ticket, but if nominated for President by
the GOP (presumably nominated
at a brokered convention, since mathematically he cannot win with delegates), he’d be happy choosing a Democrat as his running
mate?!?!
Who’s
side is he on? Actually, it looks like he’s on the side of the elite
establishment political class, both GOP and Democrat (the so-called Uniparty). He’s accepted
campaign contributions from George Soros and his surrogates; see CTPP’s earlier
blog here. The GOPe does not care whether it wins or loses, as long as the
elite noses are still in the trough. And Gov. Kasich is part of the elite’s
game plan.
