Trump might 'get smoked' at brokered Republican convention

http://www.oregonlive.com/today/index.ssf/2016/02/donald_trump_might_get_smoked.html

This year, we might get a peek at what it was like back in the day. If none of the candidates has enough delegates to secure the nomination on the first ballot, things will get interesting at the Cleveland convention. Chaos could reign as Trump and Cruz -- and maybe former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and retired surgeon Ben Carson -- jockey for the backing of delegates who are suddenly free agents. The last time the Republicans had a contested convention was 1976. President Jerry Ford used "the perquisites of the presidency" such as trips on Air Force One, writes Bloomberg, to nail down delegates and hold off a late charge by former California Gov. Ronald Reagan, who had run neck-and-neck with Ford in the primaries.

What would happen 40 years after that fateful Ford-Reagan clash? If history is a guide, a candidate respected and trusted by party insiders will get the nomination. Think Bush, though he has some work to do. Current Republican Party rules require a candidate to claim "a majority of delegates in eight states or territories to be eligible for the nomination," Politico notes. (Being a candidate in the primaries is now essentially a requirement for anyone who wants to be a major-party presidential nominee. Illinois Gov. Adlai Stevenson was the last person to be truly drafted, at the 1952 Democratic National Convention.)

The point being: Trump, the ultimate outsider, probably would be at a disadvantage if he doesn't win enough delegates for a first-ballot nomination, even if he's leading going into the convention. "Donald Trump would get smoked at an open convention," one state party chairman told Politico. If that is indeed what happens, it won't just be because the establishment doesn't like the businessman and reality-TV star. GOP poobahs desperately want to win the White House, and they fear Trump's appeal is severely limited outside the party. "His approval ratings are below water on a lot of very important metrics in this country," New Jersey Democratic Senator Cory Booker commented this week.

Why Romney is a bigger idiot than I thought.

So hes going to endorse Rubio.

Cruz is not leaving the race.
Rubio isn't leaving the race.

No way Chump is getting 50% of delegates.

THIS IS GOING TO THE CONVENTION.

Romney would be in PRIMO position to be the consensus establishment candidate.

Niceness gets you no where with this sob.
