What, so they are just going to throw out the rules, and delegates won’t matter?

This mentality just kind of reminds me of these athletes who, when interviewed after a victory, say something like, “God is great”, or “God is good”, as if God favors them over the other players or team, despite the fact that there are almost certainly other players on the opposing team who are just as devout believers.

“What, so they are just going to throw out the rules, and delegates won’t matter?”

Dude. If you start with an omnipotent God, then if He wants XYZ to win, XYZ wins. The logic is inexorable. He’s omnipotent. If he wants the Israelis out of Egypt, the Red Sea parts. Moving a few delegates around doesn’t seem like such a big deal.

I suspect that the reason this annoys you so much is a cultural thing. The lady’s statement says “lower class” to many R guts. It’s uncomfortable to be in the same club with her.

But if you want to win, you are. In fact, you ought to try to treat her with genuine respect. She may say awkward things in your presence that make you uncomfortable. But she’s a lot smarter than you give her credit for. And she knows when she’s being dissed or patronized.

If Romney or Gingrich want to win, they need her vote, her work, and her money.
