I would expect a mix of bribes and blackmail by Team Romney and the GOP-e to secure the nomination for Mitt in this scenario.

A brokered convention would inevitably mean Romney is guaranteed the nomination, no? I’d think the GOP-e would use bribery, coercion and vote rigging to make it happen.

If Romney couldn't win a majority of delegates during the primary, despite having been the "presumed frontrunner" for much of it, I can't see the delegates nominating him. I htink he might have a tough time getting even 40% of the delegates. I think you almost have to go to someone outside those four candidates.

Absolutely. Brokered convention = Romney as the result of dirty deals made in RINO-inhabited, smoke-filled, back rooms in Tampa hotels.

Lets wait til Super Tuesday before we talk Brokered Conventions and such things. Still, it would be exciting for a change. Better than the rubber stamp it has become over the last few decades. I would love a dark horse to come forward.
