You wanna know my odds predictions?

Cruz - 25%
Trump - 25%
Rubio - 15%

...drum roll.......

Paul Ryan - 35%

The ascension of Paul Ryan to Speaker was a trial balloon or test run for an eventual convention floor fight. The question had to be answered...Was there a candidate that would be acceptable to both the RINOs and the conservatives in the Republican party. The failure of the House conservatives to stop Ryan showed the GOPe that Ryan could get through.

I think if it is a brokered convention, he will be drafted at, or in the weeks leading up to, the convention.

If Trump or Cruz can take a majority of the delegates we won't have to worry about it but I'm not so sure.

Their plan works to torpedo Trump, and then pull that kind of stunt,,,, and ill vote for Hillary on general principles. Just to help destroy the GOP.
