You are saying GOP's best hope (eluding that democrats would easily win), and not sure your meaning behind saving the republican party. Republican party would be so shattered if a non candidate was elected nominee.
Mr. Prince, you did say what the people wanted because you said Paul Ryan would be best hope for whitehouse. How would he get there without the people's vote?
Robbie, I do believe you owe an apology to prince... just because.  |
Hi Plaster,
Here is what I'm talking about.
If Trump or Cruz don't get enough delegates (1237 I think), then its possible that they could end up in a brokered convention.
According to
Top Republicans: Paul Ryan will end up with GOP nomination - Business Insider
"The Republican nominee could be named at the convention if none of the three remaining candidates enter it with 1,237 delegates"
But its not just Paul Ryan.
According to
What is a brokered convention, and are we going to have one in 2016? | Brookings Institution
Mitt Romney could actually become the republican nominee!
This thread, including my comments later, were never about what the people want. It was about someone outside the current list of runners (Trump, Cruz, Kasic) actually becoming the nominee. Paul Ryan has already made a pretty good ad that looks and sounds presidential, and it looks like the RNC is now considering Romney.
I'm not trying to argue with Robbie. He clearly doesn't understand the point I was trying to make. I don't think this is my fault, but even if it was, I don't deserve to he insulted and lied to about it.
Peace.
