GOP’s cockroach mentality
Efforts by Gov. John Kasich and Sen. Ted Cruz to derail Donald Trump’s march to the Republican presidential nomination remind me of what a former speaker of the state House said about Kentuckians who weren’t as progressive-minded as he was: “They’re like cockroaches in a bathtub. If one of them starts to crawl out, the others reach up and pull him back down.”
