“Apologies to LBJ: difference between endorsing Trump and voting for Trump is difference between chicken shit and chicken shit on salad.”

John Weaver, chief strategist for Gov. John Kasich’s presidential campaign, dismissed the idea that Kasich was staying in the race in case there was a brokered convention, telling Politico that a path to victory will open by March 15.
“The scenario requires Ted Cruz to underperform on Tuesday, when seven Southern states, including his home state of Texas, go to the polls. It also requires Marco Rubio to lose his home state of Florida on March 15 and Kasich to win Ohio simultaneously. In that scenario, Weaver said Kasich would likely be the only candidate with a path to take on Trump.”race.
