John Kasich picks up a Rand Paul adviser
By Ed O'Keefe - February 3, 2016

Republican presidential candidate John Kasich has picked up a former adviser to the presidential campaign of Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).

Mike Biundo will join the Kasich campaign as a national adviser, according to campaign aides. He had been a senior adviser to Paul's campaign, which ended on Wednesday, and ran Rick Santorum's 2012 race before working for the eventual GOP nominee, Mitt Romney.

Biundo is a New Hampshire native who brings a deep understanding of Granite State politics, which could help in the closing days of the primary. Kasich aides said that picking up Biundo's national political experience will help the campaign prepare for the ensuing contests.

Santorum '12 > Romney > Rand Paul '16 > Kasich
Expect Kasich to drop out soon.

Expect Kasich to drop out soon.

Kasich is polling 2nd/3rd/4th in New Hampshire. Unless all polls are way off, he will not drop out until late February, at the earliest.

It would probably have been wiser to switch to the Cruz camp.

So what? Rand is no longer running.

everyone wants to think people working for the campaign are liberty supporters...when in fact, they may just be capitalists working like normal americans.

 

[Erazer]

Looks like someone couldn't get a job post-Rand.

 

[phill4paul]

That's just what "professionals" do.

So it was okay that Jesse Benton joined with McConnell's team after leaving Ron Paul's running, but...?
