Nut job Rick Santorum won primaries in in Alabama and Mississippi on Tuesday. Mitt Romney won Hawaii’s caucuses.
The last thing you want is Santorum as the Republican presidential nominee. But the more votes for Santorum takes away from Romney. And makes it more likely the Republican party heads to the convention without a candidate who has enough delegates to win.
A brokered convention makes the delegates Ron Paul is accumulating very valuable. He can use them as a negotiating item to demand something BIG from Romney. Or, if you really want to dream, Dr. Paul's delegate count leads to a second or third round of voting, with a Ron Paul nomination victory.

I hope Ron Paul gets something good out of all this.For me it's still the same no Paul no vote
ReplyDeleteWho cares? Obama will beat either of these clowns by a landslide and GOP has no one to blame but themselves.
ReplyDeleteRon Paul is the ONLY canidate that will appeal to all parties. We want obama out right? I just don't get it. Ron Paul has more in common with all these evangelical voters than they realize, as well as everyone else
ReplyDeleteHe. Is. Not. Going. To. Win.
ReplyDeleteWhen will you understand that?
There is more going on here than the Presidential election. This convention may well set the direction of the Republican party for many years. Personally, I'm fiscally conservative and socially moderate and am not willing to allow the social conservatives (theocrats is another term) to take over the party.
