Army,

I don't disagree. But where will Romneys delegates go?

I was thinking they would be up for grabs at the convention...but that would not be right because the delegates vote according to the primary or caucas vote results...right?

He was mumbling something about “enlightenment” and “the force”. It sounds like he’s drunk on kool-aid again.

I think I once knew.....I believe the delegates have to vote with the state for the first vote but are allowed to caucus within their delegation and change if there's a second vote. I don't remember for sure.

The GOP's only hope is that Shillary wins on the dem side, because there is no way a Huckster or McCain will win the general against Obamarama "Vote me I talk Pretty" Hussein. I am not going to vote for any major candidate this time around, I am going to concentrate on making sure real conservatives get elected to the house and senate. I am going to write in Ronald Reagan though for President as a voice of protest.
