John Kasich told conservatives calling on him to drop his 2016 bid ”to just relax.” Appearing on Face the Nation this morning, the Ohio governor said, “People want to consolidate – they ought to consolidate my way.”
“These guys have spent $50 million in the campaign and I’ve spent about $15 million,” Kasich told John Dickerson. “The fact of the matter is a lot of the money they spent has been designed to hammer me, negative ads against me.”
Speaking of the remaining states, Kasich said, “I don’t have to win these places, I just have to hang in there and continue to gain momentum.”
