Why is Kasich still in the race?

[ninja007]

Did anyone tell him he cannot mathematically be elected?

 

[deltex1]

He's staying in until he defeats that chin/neck twitch he has...

 

[konradv]

Maybe he's counting on a Trump implosion.

 

[Political Junky]

He's the only republican running who is not a full blown fascist.

someone has to milk off a few dels from trump - kruz so they can't win outright

He outright lies and flipflops day to day. The Trump Gullibles don't care.

 

[skye]

No

He won't

this is going to be a Trump-Clinton thing

that's all

 

[Dot Com]

He's betting on a brokered convention. I don't see any way that he'd be able to pull it off even if it went that way, but there's really no downside for him (as long as he can keep raising money) to stay in.

...and then!

there's not going to be much left of Paul Ryan or the House republicans after the summer meltdowns ...

 

[WildBillKelsoe]

He's hoping to be the backroom pick.

That is the real insanity in him staying in though - there is no way that the GOP is going to select a nominee that managed to win one out of fifty states. That would just be moronic.

Simple math. To stump Trump. Spread out votes between 3 people instead of 2, taking away votes from the leader, Trump, resulting in a contested convention. This is what the republican establishment wants.
Guess what - it won't work. Voters are pissed. And, judging from these primaries, voters are speaking out for Trump, and against the do-nothing establishment.

I don't think that he even believes he can pull it off - but a brokered convention would give him quite a bargaining position for VP or a cabinet position.

He thinks he can win a brokered convention and everyone will be alright with that despite that no one has supported him.

Or in alternative he thinks Trump will put him, Mr amnesty, on the ticket as vp

He should go home.

But it doesn't hurt Trump. It helps him. Because it keeps the anti Trump vote spread thin

Disagree. The anti Trump vote is already thin. Trump is winning these primaries by huge margins.

How big was that Missouri margin again?
