While a divided convention is possible resulting in the GOP "nominating" a candidate, it's been decades since that's happened. The overwhelming probability is that the Republican nominee will be determined through the primary process. By voters. Who show up to vote. IMO the constant "my way or I'm staying home" drone is counterproductive. As the the "get the *ell out of here Rudy supporters" attitude. Not a good way to change minds, thus votes.
You don't need a divided convention - 1992 is a good example of what happens when the GOP standard bearer drifts too far leftward.
Rudy would be a hard lurch to port. Straight into oncoming Democrats.
