It seems too late in the process to make up the losses in swing voters and states IMHO. And Trump supporters? I don't see them getting on board with any 'establishment' candidate that comes out of a brokered, back room convention.

It may be wishful thinking on my part, but I'm thinking there is a generational mess the Repub party has pulled down upon themselves. After so many years of relying on fringe elements and sectors of the electorate that really don't have that much in common, things are splintering because they have never actually delivered on any of their promises to anybody not of the CEO/Investor class.
