I’m not engineering anything. It’s just happening. Like they say, stuff happens.
When they get to the convention and nobody has the quantity of delegates necessary to garner the nomination after the first ballot, they will haggle and out of that there is a good chance that Fred Thompson will be the nominee because he is the only candidate who will satisfy all the different conservative "factions" represented by the RINOs. |
When you say, “It’s just happening”, you mean to say the convention delegates will look to the ones who couldn’t garner 2 digit vote percentages in the various state primaries or collect donations sufficient to keep their campaigns going? Or do you expect someone like Newt Gingrich or Jeb Bush to come to the rescue?
Stuff happens, but I hope stuff doesn’t happen this time, I don’t think I can take having Hillary in the White House, because she ran against the “hand picked” McCain, the chosen one of Bill Clinton. I haven’t felt this bad since Dukasis ran for President. I was in Massachusetts at the time, and I kept saying, I can not believe Dukasis is the Democrat running for President. I remember how the media hyped him , it scared the hell out of me. Of course , my instincts were right, Dukasis was defeated. I just hope my instincts are right now, because for the life of me, I do not see the attraction of Hillary in the Oval Office.
