Couldn’t Kasich take out republicans without running for POTUS.

That makes no bloody sense what so ever. Sigh…I long for the days when I could actually have a conversation with a Conservative and have them make sense!

Well, I guess you at least have to give Erickson points for originality in today’s over-the-top Republican analogy.

Well, sure. But how often do right wing analogies actually make sense? “Obamacare is like slavery!” “Obamacare is like the Holocaust!” You wonder how these guys avoid hyperventilating.

I think that they spend their whole days hyperventilating, to be honest.

looked in the mirror every day since he left Fox News calling

Roger, Roger on the wall, who’s the Voldemortest of all?
I would have thought it would be the guy who told Booth to shoot Lincoln but if you want it to be Kasich, OK.

Nothing like calling a spade a spade! Erickson must have a different dog in the hunt!

let me guess, if elected Kasich has not pledged to financially support Son of Eric personally. So out of the massive field he’s the bad guy that is messing it up

“John Kasich does not want to be President. He wants to be the guy who scuttles the chances of other candidates,” Erickson wrote. “This isn’t a Presidential campaign, it is John Wilkes Booth acting on a debate stage until he can take out another Republican. Metaphorically speaking, of course.”

Erick Erickson secretly wants to be sodomized by goats. Metaphorically speaking, of course.

Edit: Oh noes, am I falling for a secret plan to make John Kasich look reasonable?

This guy REALLY doesn’t halfass his analogies. Either you’re the next Ronald Reagan or you’re worse than Benedict Arnold. There is no middleground when you’re pretending you’re battling a daily struggle to defend your freedom. Small children typically lack the nuance required to make moral judgments, and rely on absolutes because it’s all they can comprehend.

Erickson is crazy. Kasich obviously reminds everyone of Leon Czolgosz. Geez.

Hmmmm… Erick son of Erick is causing me to consider Kasich a viable candidate now.

Just love the Narnia allusion. It didn’t really clarify anything except when EE last read a book. Oh wait, of course, he saw the movie!

Methinks Erickson realizes there are too many establishment candidates (let’s please not debate which is the correct term to use to describe the not-completely-fucking-crazy wing of the GOP) jumping in the race. Moderate Republican voters are a smaller portion of the base and they’re shrinking in numbers as they jump ship to the Democrats or become Indies. So, now you have Jeb, Walker, (potentially) Kasich, Christie, Rubio, Fiorina, and Pataki all competing for the same pool of votes. Instead of the establishment voters coalescing behind one candidate, they’ll be pulled in several different directions. Republicans could ultimately end up with two or three remaining candidates battling it out and who are all from the crazy-as-a-shithouse-rat wing of the GOP. That would be a complete disaster for the party, but a much deserved one.
