A brokered convention predestined to deny Trump the nomination, if successful, will cause such disaffection among Republican voters that it will make a Republican presidential defeat much more likely than if Trump were allowed to rightfully claim the candidacy. Of course, the primary aim of the smoke-filled-rooms’ crowd would be to stop Trump, not Hillary.

Let them try it. I’ll work hard to keep friends and family from voting at all. No matter how much I had DemocRATS, I’ll give them credit for one thing. They know how to use power when they get it. The GOOBs haven’t got a clue. The GOOBs are so used to the commie ‘RATS always having their way that the GOP is afraid to hurt the feelings of the snot-nosed ‘RATS by telling them no.

The national party chairman has to consider and make plans for no candidate to get the required number of votes on the first ballot to be the candidate. With so many candidates at this point, it could happen none of them would get the required number. If Trump gets the required number on the first ballot, he is the candidate, period.

Who are the so called “Republican power brokers”?

Trump is well aware of what's going on.

He negotiating a deal and he's got all the leverage.

If they go against the will of the voters (which is what they want to do), Trump (with Carson's help) will expose them on live TV and the GOP and its hand picked candidate will be dead.

Then he will run 3rd party and win.

They obviously just aren't bright enough to see what's going on.

Between the GOPE and the liberals we’ll probably have about 1 billion votes to tally to figure out who the eventual winner is!///////

What the hell, it’s not even Iowa caucus time and we’re talking about brokered conventions?

Maybe we could hold off until after Super Tuesday. Of course the media’s hysterics is largely why Trump polls so well.

I don’t know why anyone is surprised. Remember last time and Ron Paul? The fix was in for Romney then and it will be this time. The GOPe play kingmaker and expect us to just roll over and take it (like we did with Dole, McCain, Romney). They do not care in the least who the base actually wants - they will do whatever to get the one they want.

Trump is their worst nightmare because they cannot control him.

This is why I’m no longer a Republican and I’m sure as hell not a Democrat......I’m an Independent in a state that is teeming with Republicans who I despise as much as I do Democrats! What Trump and Carson are showing the voters is how sorry the Republicans are and there is indeed a Uniparty in WDC and I hope and pray the American people are seeing it!

The hope among the establishment is that the moderates will unite behind a candidate like Jeb Bush to defeat Trump in a one on one match-up.

Trump, Cruz and Carson have together 60% of the vote. Unite all they want, the moderates will not win this nomination.

“Moderate insiders” is Orwellian duckspeak for “criminal insiders.”

They hate Cruz even more than Trump, the GOP Beltway folks. Murdoch is right - it will be in their own best interests NOT to move forward to try to destroy either of those two. We are wise to their ways; we are sick to death of the get-along pablum candidates they’ve been running, and we are not going to play reindeer games with them this time around.

I just can’take trust anyone named Reince Priebus. Sounds like he was raised in a gold-plated crib.

The Whig Party is panicking to early. Very ungainly.

If Meitch and his boys steal this I will vote for the third party candidate most likely to screw everyone

I admit, I have NO IDEA what a brokered convention means.

No one is allowed to oppose Trump without it being “stealing” or a “plot”. Yawn. Go Cruz.
