Can the Republican party win the GE without John Kasich on the ticket (as president or VP), for swing states, against Hillary Clinton?

They can win Ohio without him. I want to say they could run Portman for veep, but he's in a pretty tough re-election fight so he's probably off limits. Anyway, I think that a well-run Republican campaign could have enough appeal to the industrial Midwest to carry the R+1 PVI state.

No, but Ohio, might vote GOP anyways, they have problems in SW, where Gerrymandering isnt as partisan like Ohio GOP redistricting and Dems are gonna pick up House seats in SW anyways.

Rubio(55%) and Christie(63%) have pretty good chances at winning there. I think Kasich would add about +10-15% to their chances there, while he himself has about a 80% chance of winning there.

Ohio:
Clinton/Castro: 48%
Rubio/Gardner: 49%

Christie/Ernst: 50%
Clinton/Castro: 48%

Rubio/Kasich: 51%
Clinton/Castro: 48%

Christie/Kasich: 52%
Clinton/Castro: 47%

Kasich/Ernst: 53%
Clinton/Castro: 45%

Have you even been here? I won't deny that Kasich lacks campaigning skills but he's at least popular locally.

His win in 2010 was highly inflated by LOL Fitzgerald, and the fact is, the home state effect doesn't exist anymore.

He will certainly help in OH (I see Rubio/Kasich ticket as the strongest GOP). But he's not necessary for the GOP to win. Christie as Rubio running mate could also be strong or even a wise pick by Trump (a woman, latino or black or even both).

Kasich is irrelevant. He is doing nothing and will do nothing. He should just drop out and stop waving his arms around.
