Rubio communications director Alex Conant actually suggested such a strategy Friday, indicating that if Republican voters really want to vanquish Donald Trump in the Buckeye State's GOP primary Tuesday, Ohio Gov.

"If you are a Republican primary voter in Ohio and you want to defeat Donald Trump, your best chance in Ohio is John Kasich," Conant told CNN.
