Who has the pull with delegates and clout with the GOP at large to mount such an effort? I’ll tell you: No one.
We had no one run that could convincingly roust Mitt from the “it’s his turn” seat over the last six months and I see no one going to the Convention floor and wresting the nomination away. Palin, DeMint, and Cheney are the few with magic clout. They have not used it so far and i doubt they will Paul has a few delegates and some are crazy enough to cause a train wreck.
You seem to think we have a replacement with clout and “fire in the belly”.
Wellll, actually we do have someone with “fire in the belly.” Officially, she isn’t running and many feel she won’t and if she did she couldn’t win. We may never know. If, by some miracle, she did get the nomination I would expect all those who have steadfastly shouted down any mention of that possibility to abstain from voting rather than support her -— kinda like those of us who will not vote for mittens under any circumstance.
