Dan Patrick has said for the longest that he thinks that there will not be a winning candidate by the Texas primary, and that Texas could be the decider. OR that there is no clear winner and we have a brokered convention.

Your thoughts?

I think that is likely. Unless someone runs the table of early states and only Romney is in the posisition to do that.

But what do I know, I expect Ron Paul to get atleast 10% in New Hamphire....

I think that is a distinct possibility with four or so candidates polling as they are right now. I don’t necessary factor Paul’s position into this as I feel a lot of his voters aren’t necessarily regular Republican primary voters, jmo.

I have read but can’t point to it now that there are about 60% of the delegates to be selected by the Texas primary. If this is so then it’s very possible that a nominee won’t be crowned by Mar. 4 and Texas does become a big player.
