Absolutely Brokered has been denounced by Cruz!! Should be... and he said so. THAT is part of the establishment.
Contested is different and I would think that would make sense IF a candidate doesn’t come up with the required votes.

I agree with CRUZ on both counts.. NO to brokered, YES to contested IF not enough votes are there for a candidate....

Yes, I completely understand, and was not insinuating that Cruz was for a brokered convention. I’m looking forward to Rush discussing “Contested Conventions” specifically. I think much of our media uses these two terms interchangeably.

I’ve had a long time wish to witness a contested convention. This year, on the GOP side, I would pass on that wish. Even though, in the long run, it could be good for the party, people seem to get much more bitter about things like that now, and that would lead to President Biden. I think we are going to see a brokered convention for the Dims. I think Obama is spiteful enough to allow Hillary to get indicted just before the convention.

Okay. Maybe I was wrong. Sorry. I’ve never heard this so-called Contested thing mentioned.

It would only come to that if no one ...okay since you know so much, how would it come to that.
