I don’t think that part matters as much. I think Gingrich will use his bargaining chip for a position in cabinet.

If he contributes to stopping Romney, then he’s accomplished a lot.

Did you finally figure out Mittens for the flop horse he is?

Then, under the rules of the convention, he asks some state delegations to vote on supporting his nomination. I suspect he would find enough to do so.

Binding delegate votes is covered by each of the 57 states, not by the RNC (except for appeals to convention rules committees).

This is a question that seems to be glossed over when people argue that Newt will have some sort of power at the Convention as it stands. If he doesn’t win three more states, I don’t see how he get any control on the floor.

Look what Romney's Texas ringer is saying. Staying in the race may pay off in getting I-never-saw-an-election-I-couldn't-buy to name your boy senator his VP. How disgustingly pathetic, and of no surprise. Go home Ron, and sit on the porch where you belong. Your bankroll is bust, and you;ve got no wind in your sails.

What Happens When Gingrich Doesn't Get A Plurality Of Delegates In 5 States?

To avoid this ...Paul should quit the race and endorse Newt.
