Republicans, whom I do not confuse with conservatives necessarily, control a great majority, the number presently escapes me after the additions of the recent election, of the 99 Statehouse legislatures.

This Republican control makes it a virtual impossibility to have a runaway convention but it also, of course, makes it difficult to secure passage by three quarters of those 99 Statehouse legislatures. That is why I think we need a black Swan but it is also why it is better to fight there than in Washington.
