There is nothing to be scared of if we go to a brokered convention. But if we do, most likely the nominee will not be from the 4 remaining.
Should Romney get to 1144, it is also possible one of the other 3 could make some kind of deal and combine their delegates.
In any event, this is turning out to be a political junkie’s dream year.
I would agree. Even the GOP-E would have gotten it through their thick skulls that the party doesn't want Romney. I wouldn't be surprised that if, as is likely, Romney brings the most delegates that he would wind up with a consolation prize of an offer as VP.
It would be interesting to see who might toss their hat into the ring. The thought of capturing the nomination for just a couple of days of back room campaigning is likely to be too tempting for a politician with any ambition to pass up.
