ROTFLMAO. This is rich. This is supposedly the savior of our country. He is a total disaster. I hope some of you FREEPERS wake up and see him as he is. A big ego fraud who loves the idea of being President but won’t perform the work to get there. I could not be happier with this news. Come on let’s support Bachmann/Santorum ticket and stop this silliness with big government Republicans.
Years ago this would have been important. Now, once a certain candidate has established the presumption of inevitability, delegate totals become sort of meaningless. By convention time, it’s a coronation and publicity effort for the fall.
Add Virginia to the probably missed list.
But the last-minute nature of the effort stands in stark contrast to Mitt Romney’s well-oiled 50-state operation, which has been up and running for more than a year. Mr. Romney already had filed his Ohio signatures and has completed ballot-access requirements in Alabama, Vermont and Alaska well ahead of deadlines.
:: already missed the deadline for Missouri’s ballot. ::
He should just do what the Dhimmicrats did in Wisconsin...find a judge to delay the review of signatures another week so the proper number of sigs can be submitted.
Can anyone explain Ohio’s 66 unpledged delegate allocation?
(i.e. 66 total delegates - 10 base at-large / 48 re: 16 congressional districts / 3 party / 5 bonus)
Delegate Selection: Winner-Take-All (by district and statewide)
What is the difference between pledged and unpledged? For examples both PA and OH are unpledged?
“OHIO: Republican delegate counts are based on the number of Republicans elected to the State Legislatures, Governors chairs, U.S. House seats, and U.S. Senators seats through 31 December 2011. Republican unpledged delegate counts are determined by state (or equivalent) party rules. We have assumed that the policies of 2008 will apply in 2012.”

Ohio primary is June 12th..
I don’t see this as very critical, since the race will have been over for months before Ohio votes.
At least Herman could manage to get his name on the ballots.
Geesh
