Same. Even Kasich would be a step up.laxwyo said:People think it's a farce to not nominate of the two leading delegate getters, but it's always been in the party rules that you need a majority and not plurality. After that, it's a free for all. I actually hope they nominate someone else in a contested convention.

I would guess that they would have to put someone in who didn't run (Romney? Ryan?). I can't imagine putting someone in who ran and was soundly beaten down by the people. Of course, I also can't imagine them putting someone in who didn't even run and didn't even give the voters a chance to voice their opinion.
Really bizarre scenario no matter what happens.

If you know anything about Wyoming's caucus system, the party leaders in Cheyenne hold most of the power just like in the national party convention

Mr. Jones is either a blowhard looking to benefit off of those that are too unintelligent to think for themselves, or is truly an ignorant simpleton. This is a guy that thinks the US government is behind the Oklahoma city bombing and 9/11. Even if the points he makes regarding the election have some basis in fact, they are tainted by the fact that he is discussing them.
