Can Romney Keep Getting 2nd And Still Win The Nom? |
|
Edited on Tue Jan-15-08 03:17 PM by K8-EEE
Is there some scenario where the others keep switching off first place and then the continual second place guy ends up with the most delegates? I heard part of a call-in show where the caller claimed this; but it seems to me there would have to be 3 guys switching out of the top spot, nut just McCain & Huck.

1. Florida and Michigan, among others are Winner-takes-all. |
|
So, it has kept him in the lead so far, but he'll need some wins from the big states.

4. yes - big wins and the rest of the states need to be split among other candidates |

2. Romney will have serious downward momentum if he doesn't win MI today. |
|
And McCain will have even more upward momentum if he wins today.

3. Most all states are winner take all, not split like we do |

Interesting. I have mixed feelings, in a way I would love Mitt to be toast as I find him to be an insufferable a-hole to the nth degree!! LOL! But thinking more logistically, if Mitt wins it turns McCain's momentum into Lieberman-style Joe-mentum, LOL. It's kind of nice if the whole GOP is split up and beating up on each other for at least as long as we are!
