Eh, buck up and deal with it.

It’s your stupid party.

Glad to see the kid from Jerry Maguire is all grown up. I remember him saying “The human head weighs 9 lbs!” like it was yesterday. Adorable…adorable.

Kasich on GOP: “What’s happened to our party?..I’m sick and tired of listening to this nonsense and I’m going to have to call it like it is in this race…”

“…until the general, when I’ll plaster on a fake smile, fall into line like a good apparatchik, and put party above country yet again.”

Cap’n Yawn demands attention!

I have a feeling that if Rubio wins the nomination, Kasich will be his VP. That’s Florida and Ohio on one ticket.

This asshole believes in exactly the same shit as the rest of them only he has a face like Worf and posture like a Ferengi. He isn’t foolin anyone. If he thinks he’s making his big move to stand out in the debate with this line to get him some attention…I think that ship has already sailed. Actually, he comes off a lot like his establishment buddy JEB! BUSH!, who’s already told us he’s got better things to do with his time, way more cool stuff than all this president-ing shit. Jebby already told the world he doesn’t need this crap. So why are either of these assholes running?

The “base” should just vote and not be heard! How dare they speak their demented minds!!! Their vacuousness is embarrassing!!!

About 20 years of manufactured outrage, fake scandals, political witch hunts, AM radio brainwashing, hyper-partisan fear mongering, pandering to bigots, the complete failure we call the George W. Bush presidency, your open invitation for the crazies to sit at the big boy table and dictate policy, and some pretty clear evidence that nothing your party has advocated for over the past 30 years has really worked all that well or did much to better anybody but rich assholes.

Well, he’s gone.

You don’t fight Crazy when you’re in the Crazy party. It’s treason.

The only candidate who has the right to say this is Gov. Rip Van Winkle (R/NY).

meri · October 27, 2015, 10:14pm

Is there another ‘debate’ tonight?

daveyjones64 · October 27, 2015, 10:15pm

He made a very similar threat before the last debate…and did absolutely nothing. The only difference is now he is in a deep deep hole,and this will probably be his last debate.

srfromgr · October 27, 2015, 10:16pm

And their myth-making continues with the added fiction that Paul Ryan is a “serious thinker” and will be one of their brightest bulbs.

senjaybulworth · October 27, 2015, 10:19pm

Wednesday, I think?

mattinpa · October 27, 2015, 10:19pm

Well, I guess there’s always a first time. I read a longish piece on him somewhere that said he’s a bit of a hothead. And with nothing to lose, maybe he’s just going for it.

hora_del_cafe · October 27, 2015, 10:21pm

“What’s happened to our party? What’s happened to the conservative movement?”

The Tea Party happened.

albesure · October 27, 2015, 10:22pm

Correct.

gehoeflinger · October 27, 2015, 10:23pm

Don’t count on OHIO! We would love to get rid of the jerk, but I would never vote for eithe of those tools.

hychka · October 27, 2015, 10:24pm

Well said!
