I am not so sure about that....if no candidate has 1440 delegates going into the convention, it will be brokered...after the pro forma vote the delegates are released from their obligation and free to vote however they want.

So I understand.

Bottom line is the Republicans do NOT have to run anything by us...they would be stupid no to do so, to be sure, but i do not think its a requirement....

The Beltway’s really a wall, then, and the Potomac a sort of moat. Interesting.

Makes me not want to go there again. Sheriff of Nottingham and Prince John come to mind.

True enough. I meant though, if Gingrich has those 1440 delegates (or more), they couldn’t take it from him.
