What are you talking about?
Back then people didn’t even vote in primaries.
The delegates were chosen by state reps in the Smokey back room.
Then, after the candidates were Selected* the general election started

See the 1976 Republcan Convention for a modern era equivalent of 1880.
Neither Ford nor Reagan had enough delegates from primaries and caucuses to win the nomination outright.
It took rides on Air Force One and political maneuvering by both camps to finally produce a Ford victory 53 to 47.

So essentially, Cruz is going to win by 15%?

From that point on, Ted can only be a broker for a contested convention

And Trump will eventually be in the same position. He will only be able to win a contested convention. What's your point?

The south was supposed to lift Cruz to certain 8victory.......he bet a wad there campaigning in 800 churches running as “televangelist in chief” ....

He lost big......that strategy was a flop....... the product of hubris.

Somebody should tell Cruz......hubris is not leadership.

"As soon as Schwarzenegger got his political nose bloodied, however, he threw in with Democrats and governed as a center-Left politician."

Wtf? Ed has really become a doddering old fool.

Ahnold turned Left because the home fires were going to torch his fortune! At least he forestalled it until after his term was up.

I tell you man, I was pretty shocked when Clay Aiken came out the closet but airhead Ah-nold voters liking Trump and conservative McClintock voters liking Cruz? That’s a whole new level of shock. Wow.
