Kasich’s book to reintroduce himself to Ohio after a few years in finance and Fox News was a telling of his Bible study group. His first campaign for governor and his subsequent meetings with county party regulars included singing of the Billy Graham Crusade favorite, “How Great Thou Art” Kasich came back using the Teavangelical wave, then rewarded those operatives with positions in the 88 county party offices, tossing out regular Republicans. The Party did not leave him, he remade the Ohio Republican Party
It is his own damn fault if the Republicans in Ohio are to right of the his (with very few exceptions) religious and fiscal conservative positions.
edit: And Weavers fault, too.
I am pulling for all of those Trump supporters in the Republican primaries.
They are going to be swept away in the bluish dark pink tsunami that’s coming. Hope they drown.
I’m sailing on the good ship Blankenship, the one true Republican!
Vote for Don the ex-Con!
Challenger Mark Harris, a prominent Charlotte pastor, has tried to turn the table, saying Pittenger is a creature of Washington who refuses to help Trump “drain that swamp.”
Evidently Harris not only believes in omnipotent fantasy figures he also lives in an alternate universe inaccessible by anyone other than those adjudicated criminally insane. That’s why he’s getting my generous donation of thoughts and prayers.
…candidates who have spent much of the race praising the Trump and bashing each other.
I realize it’s just a typo, but that sentence is all kinds of hilarious.
I’m hoping for, “Don the soon-to-be con.”
Just thought I’d share …
First there is scandal fatigue. Then there is the general perception that he is doing well on the foreign policy front. Finally there is the absence of other news. For example only 4 of the stories on the front page of TMP aren’t Trump stories. Big important and troubling stories are being ignored. For example since February the stock market has been in turmoil I know I have lost about 5 percent of the value of my stock since the very top. Nobody is reporting on it. The press doesn’t have time to report on all of the damage being done to the administration by the Trump secretaries. The government seems to be in unusual turmoil as Zinke, Pruitt and the rest are actively returning America to the 1950s. Nobody is reporting that because Trump.
That’s the other Don, 
With any luck he will die in prison and never have to worry about being a ex-Con…
This article, and others like it, are misstating what’s going on in the GOP. The candidates who are the most viscerally pro-Trump are the ones with the least to lose. They are underdogs in these races or are up against strongly funded Ryanite types or strong Democratic incumbents where they don’t have a great chance to win. Therefore, they embrace the extreme to rally an intensified base to win in a smaller primary electorate. You’re not seeing GOP incumbents or others in suburban districts embracing Trump with a full throated defense or embrace. In Arizona, for example, Pence probably damaged their chances of keeping Flake’s seat by embracing Arpaio, who is not the favorite to win the primary or the general election. He is extreme by nature, but he is campaigning on that extremism because he can’t otherwise defeat the 2 stronger candidates, McSally and Ward. There are two types of GOPers: Trump enablers in a suit, and rabid Trumper nuts. The former outnumber the latter. The reason our Democratic campaigns are focused on issues is because the soft underbelly of the GOP isn’t Trumpism, it’s establishment GOP/Ryanite policies. That’s why we’re becoming more effective. In congressional districts which incorporate suburbs, the Trumpers are the weakest candidates, and yet the more corporate types are also disdained because of their policy positions.
Matter of taste but I like Luckovich’s style a bit better than Toles’s. Looser, woolier, less stylized, more open-ended.
Well they’re not witches and I not sure if they support legitimate rape, but please proceed. You’ll do well like the candidates who supported the aforementioned
Same. I almost always prefer the more abstract.
GOP Primary Candidates Bear-Hug Trump, Threatening 2018 Prospects
(Sigh) If only the “bear-hug” were not metaphorical.
