I'm not sure I see any surefire winners to beat Trump on the Democrat side. (It's harder to dethrone an incumbent.) Kasich could get the votes of Republicans who don't want to vote for Trump but don't want to vote for a Democrat, and a lot of moderates on both sides.
That probably sounds way too much like conceding to ever be realistic in this two party system, though.
Long before the '16 campaign got under way I predicted Kasich would have a good chance to win the Republican nomination because his more centrist views would play well in the General election.
And I considered Trumps talk of running as a complete joke.
