A brokered convention goes to Jeb. Whatever it takes to get there.
Push comes to shove I will go over to Trump,, but Cruz is still my first choice. Im pretty sure most Cruz supporters would go to Trump over Democrat-light.
No, no I don’t think so.
Question will be: “Will Rubio and Bush delegates vote for Hillary?
Or will they vote for Sanders?”
Dream on. There isn’t going to be a brokered convention. There will be a clear winner.
Rubio? Hahaha!
I don't either. It does not seem that Trump liked the "whatever it takes to win" antics of Cruz's campaign in Iowa.
Trump, Cruz & Rubio could win 20-40% of the delegates each?
I could win the fantasy five tonight too. LOL!
There won’t be one. The system is set up to prevent that, which likely will help Trump wrap it up early.
I don't see how Trump delegates can go any where but Cruz. I worry Cruz delegates will go to Rubio.
Trump voters come from across the political spectrum. I'd be surprised if all his delegates had Cruz as their second choice -- especially if they don't trust Cruz any more than the others on immigration.
A brokered convention -- if it happens -- would have candidates promising all kinds of things to delegates and delegates looking at some candidates with a "strange new respect" based on what they offer or what they're able to convince the delegates to believe.
Trump and some of his supporters seem to say Sanders should be #2. I think Jeb will get them.
Lets get a little further down the road and especially into the winner take all balloting before
we get into all the pondering and what ifs.
So far in N.H. with 2% in it is Trump, Kaisch, Bush, Cruz, and Rubio in that order.
2% doesn’t really say much.
How many states are winner takes all?
There is a LOT of playing left in the game.
Let’s see the SEC.
Not me. Nor my wife. Nor my best bud. Nor my mother or father. Nor my sister or her husband. Nor a half a dozen diehard conservatives in my inner circle.
Never Trump.
Says a lot about a state that will put Kasich in at #2. Seriously.
Trump, Cruz and Rubio split that 20-40% each.
Cruz could get less out west. Rubio could gain a few points out west. Trump is medium out west.
