Update: The chairman of the SC GOP tries to quell a growing uproar:

Regarding delegate questions today: to be clear, no one is seeking to unbind ANY of South Carolina’s national delegates.

Sought, and found.

He had a meeting with Reince Priebus this morning.

Seems like he’s still on board to Reince and I.

So every other candidate can break their pledge, and if Trump responds in kind they negate the will of the voters? The GOP just reveals itself as sleazier and sleazier. At this point I’m ready to walk away from them forever.

TOTALLY UNRELATED QUESTION

Why are these characters back? I see them on the Forums pages, but not on this specific thread.

So that’s why Cruz won’t give a straight answer when he’s asked if he’ll

I thought John had fixed this once and for all.

you people do realize there is NO scenerio where Cruz becomes president right?

If Trump gets the nomination, Cruz doesn’t become president.

If the nomination is stolen by convention trickery from Trump, he runs 3rd Party and Hillary becomes president.

Anyone pushing this kind of nonsense is actually trying to help Hillary be president.

It’s that simple folks.

And honestly, at this point, I wouldn’t even blame Trump for doing it, and would gladly vote 3rd party to register my disdain.

I’d vote a Trump 3rd party if this crap does not stop.

I don’t know how you can break a pledge if the nominee hasn’t even been chosen yet.

With that said, damn straight Trump should break that pledge if they GOP-e plays their little RINO games at the convention and gives us anyone other than Trump or Cruz. (and just Trump after Cruz can no longer win the nomination mathematically).

That’s right, Cruz will forfeit all 0 delegates he won in SC, which will be really tough on all those in the ZERO counties that he won.

All these rules and then new rules recently made in one state or another, add Internet voting, all these people in NC registered in as many as 5 different counties and only about a dozen had been counted then makes one wonder if we have an election. It damn sure is crooked as hell and fixing it should be priority 1 before NOV.

There is a big ongoing legal battle about who holds the trademark for apostrophes.
