brokered convention with 6 nominees
I think Yeb is out of the race on Super Tuesday, if not earlier.
Many of the March 1 primary states are early voting right now. The establishment lane’s Super Tuesday vote is already being diluted.
A few articles up says Jeb is out of money and is done.
It will be a three man race soon, then maybe down to 2 in April.
This is exactly why I want Jeb and Kasich to stay in the race until at least April 1.

By my math, and if current polls are to be believed, Trump will go into the convention with about 1,300 delegates. Enough to not have a brokered convention.
Interesting. This was the Fox News meme all week ... “If the mainstream GOP can just get down to one candidate they can beat Trump” (and stated that way, as advocacy rather than analysis).
Boo hoo guys, now you know how we’ve felt time after time when an array of good conservative candidates peck each other into oblivion while a McCain or Romney sails to nomination and defeat.
Yeah, I’m sure the New York Times gives a damn about the GOP... yeah, right.
