Halfway through with 10 states? He's either going to be the nominee, or it is going to convention, as with Reagan.

The last time the nomination went this long without a winner was back in '08 with 19 states going to the challengers.



Technically there hasn't been a brokered convention since the DNC did away with its 2/3rds requirement in the 1940s. Now the 1924 DNC was epic.

Republicans stealing elections in America? I'm guessing whoever wrote that wasn't paying any attention in 2000.

Obviously caucuses have different turnouts than primaries, but wow. Santorum got 55% in the primary, while Paul only got 12%.

I'm taking it that this is another epic fail in democracy?

OK, it's time to change their state motto to "Fail to show me"
