That's a conditional endorsement. Didn't Boehner just endorse Kasich?

Wow, I would have expected Kasich.

Story here:

http://www.wyff4.com/news/BREAKING-Gov-Nikki-Haley-to-support-Cruz/38547288?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=wyffnews4

Apparently, she's "supporting" him, but it's not an official endorsement. Don't know why.

Because he's not crazy, he just enjoys getting a "snowballing" paycheck by fossil fuels.

Yes, this is about it. Inhofe is a tool of the Oil and Gas Industry - he merely does the family values insanity to get votes. Kasich is close to as conservative as Inhofe is - which is why Inhofe endorses him.

And he hates Cruz. Probably more than Trump.

Mike Leavitt for Kasich.

Leavitt is the former Governor of Utah, EPA Head and Romney adviser.  Seems like Kasich will seriously contest UT!

If by "contest" you mean make sure Cruz doesn't get over 50% in UT and all the delegates, then yes.

Unless Romney interferes, Cruz should win this easily.  But Kasich could still pick up some support in Salt Lake and Park City.

There is that - Graham could serve as Secretary of Defense for Cruz!

But this just shows how disoriented the "establishment" is!  They should read recommendations on Atlas more Smiley.

Graham's endorsement is purely anti-Trump. There's nothing he likes about Cruz, and their foreign policies are worlds apart.
