If Rubio Loses Florida on Tuesday, Then The Republicans Will Reintroduce Mitt Romney (Vanity)
02/28/16

Posted on 02/28/2016 1:27:49 AM PST by Enlightened1

If Marco Rubio loses in Florida on Super Tuesday, then expect the Republican Establishment/Globalist to roll out Plan C...., Mitt Romney.

They will slip Mitt Romney in via a brokered Republican Convention in Cleveland. This is even though Mitt Romney never got a single vote in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Nevada, etc...

Expect lots of dirty tricks about Trump between today and Tuesday. The Establishment/Globalist are throwing everything they have at Trump including the kitchen sink.

Just know if Jeb, Rubio or any other Establishment candidate was winning like Trump, then the Establishment media would be telling us this race is over.

You can only have a brokered convention if no candidate has the majority of the delegates.

The National Socialist entering the Republican party seem to have prevented that scenario.

Florida does not vote until March 15, 2 weeks after Super Tuesday. By that point, the filing deadline for the vast majority of states will have passed.

You’re in error... FL won’t hold its primary until SDT - March 15.

And yes, Trump is well ahead there.

Okay my bad on that, but I still stand by if Rubio loses Florida, then they will roll out Mitt Romney.

The GOP establishment might parachute in Mittens as a compromise candidate IF there is a brokered convention.

In reality, Trump will have wrapped up a majority of the required delegates by March 15 if not sooner.

Fantasies of the party elite selecting another candidate are just fantasies.

It shows the extent of desperation in the establishment and long before that, it will make its peace with Trump.

Mitten’s FB page is full of people screaming about this.

Half are screaming for him to GTFO and the other half are swooning at the possibility of his second coming.

I don’t think so.

I think GOPe is hoping for no one to win the majority of delegates so it is an open convention. Trump would have the most, but be a bit short.

Then their idea is for Ryan, not Romney.

I don’t think they can pull it off, though, but I do think Ryan is their hope.
