John Kasich has a low delegate total! He is banking on Ohio and a few Northern states to Resuscitate his Campaign! Why doesn't he just drop out?

Many Republicans are preparing for a contested primary, where no single candidate has enough delegates to carry the day. Someone would need to win 1,237 delegates to win a majority. If nobody gets a majority, anyone left standing who hasn't quit, might end up being the one. http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/delegate-math-here-s-how-contested-convention-could-happen-n531191

Yes, John Kasich is a qualified candidate, possibly more so than those who remain. But so were others who have already been eliminated. So, why is he still in it? That's a helluva good question. Maybe he is hoping for a brokered convention. Maybe his campaign managers are following in the footsteps of Abraham Lincoln's campaign managers. They didn't expect Lincoln to be anyone's first pick, but rather everyone's second pick. It worked for Lincoln. That leaves the question: Will there be a brokered convention? Only if Trump does not have sufficient delegates to win on the first ballot. If the first ballot fails, everyone is released from their commitments and can vote for whomever they please. Could it be Kasich? Could be...

Because for some reason I don't understand; John Kasich thinks he is the greatest thing to come down the road since the automatic transmission He's one of those guys who doesn't know when it is time to say good bye... "So good bye John Kasich the party's over; you had some fun and should not run. So do yourself and all of us a favor and just leave and go back to Ohio".....& thanx for being the adult in the room during the debates when all around you everyone else was acting and pouting like College Preppies trying to become Class President of Sigma Delta Epsilon Frat House or SDE...(Sex,Drugs Experimenters)...

Don't kid yourself for a moment, if Trump gets the nomination he could tap Kasich (the voice of reason) not to mention his connection and knowledge of how Capitol Hill operates.
Kasich has said he is running for President not Vice but I think if he was offered he would take it.

Give Him Credit, Doesn't stand a chance in Hell probably the Closest that the Republicans can come to someone that they could pass off as a Moderate. I just don't see it happening.

SPC Andrew Griffin - To close to call. Turnout should be real good - no snow! We do have to remember that it's not winner take all in MI - It's proportional.
