Jeb Bush's campaign was quick to put the kibosh on John Kasich's chances after the Ohio governor came in second in the New Hampshire Republican primary Tuesday night. "Kasich ran a one-state campaign," Bush spokesman Tim Miller said Tuesday. "He does not have a viable path to the nomination at all, and he certainly does not have a viable path to success in South Carolina, a state where support of the military is critical."
Bush's campaign also took a shot at Donald Trump, questioning just how successful the first-place finisher in New Hampshire will be moving forward. "[Trump] obviously did very well tonight with independents but... in states where it's a Republican primary, Trump's going to struggle," Miller said.
