if Rudy wins the nomination, that means he won a majority of delegates. The fact that some delegates supported other contenders, is irrelevant.

For example, since Duncan Hunter is a class act, and a Republican through and through, should he lose the nomination, and Rudy wins it, he will throw his support behind Rudy. Ergo (which means "herefore", for the pedantically challenged), since those who lost the nomination will throw their support behind Rudy, he will indeed have a majority of delegates (because he won the nomination).

We have seen in past elections that Democrats tried to spin a loss as a win, but I haven't seen Repoublicans do so as yet, so my point still holds. Since we do elect folks democratically in our great country, that would mean that they are elected by a mojority of those who vote.

The "all or nothing" gang, who would be in the minority, may choose to bolt or not vote and that is their choice. However, since they would be the minority, THEY would be at fault should the party fracture.

Of course, those who do decide to hold out and not vote, or would vote for Fred Mertz of the Itchy Tochus Party would lose what little credibility they have, by allowing a Defeatocrat to take the WH, thereby placing the country in terrible jeopardy.

So, there you have it. Hope that you can follow along, Einstein.

"They, the Minority, are going to bolt the Party or stay home on election day, and it's our fault if the Party splits! A minority attempting to dictate to the majority. Fascinating...the Buchanan Putsch all over again."

"if Rudy wins the nomination, that means he won a majority of delegates"

Correct me if I'm wrong but there hasn't been a election yet has there? Your statement claims those that are not supporting Rudy are in the minority, you are just plain wrong. pie in the sky does not a fact make.
