Make no mistake...with Rubio out, the Republican nominee process becomes VERY complicated ...

3. I heard something interesting tonight from a good friend

He's on the other side, but would vote for the Democratic nominee if Trump or Cruz got the GOP nod. He's a Republican in the Eisenhower vein. Voted for Obama in 2012. Anyway, I respect him since he spent a far bit of his career working for various sane republican politicians. There used to be a few. Not so many anymore. Anyway, he said a brokered convention holds perils for people like Rubio and Kasich - who want to get re-elected to their current day jobs. Antagonizing the Trump segment at the convention could cause these very same people to run out to vote against a Rubio or Kasich. Same to a certain extent with Creepy Ted in Texas. If he leans too hard on The Donald, he risks alienating the 750K Trump voters or if he cozies on up to The Donald (and Creepy Ted is just sleazy enough to do it. I think the man would sell his own mother into slavery to get the presidential nomination), he risks losing Hispanic voters, an important and growing constituency in his home state. A brokered convention will split the GOP for this election cycle and probably the next one.
