Republicans(1,191 needed to win nomination)
Candidates number of delegates
John McCain 1014
Mike Huckabee 257
Mike isn’t even in the ball park with the delegates left to get. Mike won’t get half of the needed delegates to win. The rules are who ever gets 1,191 gets the nomination. There is no need to keep dragging this out.
“Well, GHOST is free to make up his own rules but when 1191 delegates are reached by McCain ... SURELY Mike will feel even more compelled to EXIT. One can only hope.”
Actually one could also trust:

“Well, if those numbers hold and that means he gets enough delegates to claim the nomination, of course it would. That’s what I have said. I have never changed my story. You know, the thing I have had to deal with every day is being asked not once but about 10 times a day, how come you are still in the race. I give the same answer every time... Why would we be quitters?”
—Governor Mike Huckabee
