“Brokered convention please.”
How often does that happen?
Anyone know?
Is it a real possiblity?
Or is it like hoping the Easter Bunny will save us?
No brokered convention.
It won’t happen, and if it did, it would result in a McCain-Huckabee ticket, guaranteed.
See, it’s already a two man race, and so for this to happen it would mean both Romney and McCain would need to be below 1,191 delegates, with Huckabee holding the remainder. After first ballots, Huckabee would deliver his delegates to McCain, putting him over the top, in exchange for the VP spot.
Wishing for a brokered convention in hopes of any other outcome would be like hoping the Super Bowl ends in a tie and the Miami Dolphins are declared the champions.
Only with romney winning outright are we able to keep mcnasty from winning.
I wonder if a brokered convention is a good idea.
I do not trust it to the powers-that-be to negotiate in good faith.
I do not trust the RNC to select a conservative over a RINO.
Brokered convention please.
Not only will there not be a brokered convention this time, there will never be another one ever. The current system is designed to prevent them. The south votes as a block on Super Tuesday. It will boil down to the economy vs. national security. If people vote for the economy it’s Mitt; if they vote security it’s McCain.
