People will accept a brokered convention if no candidate goes there with a clear or near majority of the delegates. That's a real possibility. It happened in 1976 with Ford vs. Reagan.

However, they will not accept a brokered convention if there is a clear front runner with the majority of the delegates. Even though I think Newt is a poor choice as a standard bearer, I will support and vote for him if he gets a majority of the delegates. The Karl Roves of the GOP have a duty to do likewise. This isn't Christine O'Donnell and one Senate seat at stake.

After Fla there will only be 2 candidates left, unless you could Paul who will win nothing.

Newt or Romney will have a majority of the delegates, my guess is Newt.
