Hugh Hewitt: We're Going To an Open Convention
Townhall ^ | May 15 2016 | Katie Pavlich

Early on in the 2016 presidential election when more than a dozen GOP candidates were in the race for the White House, nationally syndicated Salem radio host Hugh Hewitt predicted a nominee wouldn't be crowned during the primary process, but instead at an open convention.

Just like every other prediction of the end of Trump, this one too shall fail. He’ll get the delegates he needs. Cruz winning Utah isn’t going to give him any momentum, he’s going to get crushed in Arizona the same day, then go on to get crushed in WI and NY.

It’s over. Might as well kick back and prepare for the wall.

Hugh continues to embarrass his loyal fans with his GOPe support of an open convention.

And for all of you people who were fooled into thinking Cruz was non-establishment, and an "outsider", in the face of a mountain of information proving otherwise..

Today, Senator Lindsey Graham announced his full-throated support for Senator Ted Cruz, to include giving Cruz access to Graham’s extensive donor and lobbying lists for financial support.

[…] Sen. Lindsey Graham will host a fundraiser on Monday in support of Sen. Ted Cruz.

Hewitt is a real POS. Listening to him is a journey into the mind of the enemy within.

“radio host Hugh Hewitt predicted a nominee wouldn’t be crowned during the primary process, but instead at an open convention”

“can someone please bitch slap little Hugh Hewitt and knock some sense into him.

An open convention is stupid. Trump will either win outright or be close enough to make a deal to win. The other candidates should drop out and prepare to beat Hillary and the Democrats.

"It’s over. Might as well kick back and prepare for the wall."

Or more likely, even if Trump wins, kick back and prepare for him to make a great deal with Congress that doesn't include a wall.

Hugh, Erick Erickson, Kristol, Towrey, National Review, and Beck are embarrassments.

I believe Levin is principled in his beliefs so I do not put him in the same category

Hewitt’s still pimping for Romney, I presume.

Hugh is better than Beck but nowhere the league of Levin or Rush.

Why is Cruz still screwing around begging for lobbying lists and donor lists from Lindsey Graham?

The party needs to unite and get ready to win in the fall. Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz need to support Trump for the good of the party.

Hugh Hewitt is hysterical and has lost credibility. Whether we support Trump or not, we should be grateful to him for exposing fake conservatives and the mentally unstable.
