Anti-Trump Groups Determined to Soldier On
Johnny "one state" Kasich to the rescue?

Even after Donald Trump’s projected win in the Indiana primary -- his 28th victory so far this primary season -- those determined to stop him say they will soldier on.
After Trump was deemed the winner of the Indiana competitor, Ted Cruz, his closest competitor in both delegates and votes, announced he was suspending his campaign. But Ohio Gov. John Kasich is still planning to compete until Trump reaches 1,237 bound delegates.
"Our strategy has been and continues to be one that involves winning the nomination at an open convention," Kasich's chief strategist, John Weaver, wrote in a memo after Trump's victory was announced. Weaver noted that the campaign had already secured a plurality of Indiana delegates that supported their candidate, should the convention advance to a second ballot.

If you have a 1% chance of stopping Trump, there is nothing but honor in going for it.

I doubt it's honor is Kasich's case.
In spite of what he has said about it, I think he's angling for the VP slot.

He won't get it. Trump will want a life-insurance veep.

Good for Kasich. There will be a reckoning in years to come of those in the GOP establishment who chose to back Trump.

Unless he wins. Then the reckoning will be visited on those who dared to oppose him.

Will Kasich really turn down the VP slot if offered?
Maybe GOP is hoping to impeach Trump and then Kasich assumes the presidency.

Hmmm. A backstop plan if trump wins. Good.
We might see congress more united on this than it has been in a long while. As long as real Republicans + Democrats add up to enough....

Actually I think Trump would work with a Republican Congress to destroy Obamacare and other things we need. Remember he probably believes Obama was really born in Africa.
