How many folks really understand what a brokered convention is and how it works - beyond the very surface assumption that it means the primary results are not conclusive?
Is it really in our best interests to render a thorough vetting process moot for this cycle and perhaps others?
Lotta folks will love the idea of this happening for one reason or another, but be careful what you wish for!!!!
Thank you, and everyone else, for your well-reasoned responses.
The one thing that would possibly even the playing field a bit would be to have a National Primary Day, with no cross-over voting allowed.
That would perhaps be a better solution to all the front-loading.
I bet Newt Gingrich understands it!
Well, if it happens... you can be d@#n sure that there will be a *LOT* of horse-trading, a ton of favors being called in, and plenty of promises made as to what the candidate will do in return should they become the nominee and win the Presidency.
That, and I wouldn’t be suprised to see outright bribery as well.
