Huh. Thought I’d read differently but suppose I could have confused NH proceedure with Iowas. Interesting that the rules don’t say anything about a second ballot. I know here in WA we were careful to include language regarding release of delegates after the first ballot. Because...lawyers!

Also, did you read that rule #2? That if the first ballot at the convention only has one name, they all have to vote for him/her? Seems... I don’t know, odd.

Auditing all departments and agencies and eliminating fraud and waste, down sizing useless government workers is needed. From Fed down to County levels.

Who is going to invest with no jobs after 8 yrs of DUMBO ruining our economy and eliminating jobs in the US? Sure not the average Joe or Jane Doe who can barely keep their heads above water now.

The GOP hasn’t gone to a second ballot since 1948. There are a lot of reasons that won’t happen again this cycle.

And a lot of reasons that it could.

Trump is a Conservative ... nice try

That is definitely a minority opinion here. A bunch of Trump supporters admit he is not a Conservative but don't care.

1992 - Republicans nominated a non-conservative George HW Bush
1996 - Republicans nominated a non-conservative Bob Dole
2000 - Republicans nominated a pseudo-conservative George W Bush
2008 - Republicans nominated a non-conservative John McCain
2012 - Republicans nominated a non-conservative Mitt Romney
2016 - Republicans might nominate a non-conservative Donald Trump

Repeating the same thing hoping for a different result is _______. Fill in the blanks.

Hog wash. Cruz is simply un-electable period. Even Senior Amnesty has a chance, but Cruz no one in hell.

Great anti-Trump talking points , but the only problem is, they are all false .. Trump is a Paleo Conservative , which truly is the only type of real Conservative .. you tried but you failed

A bunch of Romney supporters KNEW he was not a Conservative or a Christian; but didn't care; as long as they thought they could get rid of Obama.
