Quote:I do believe that the story will be told after April 26th.  At that point, it will most likely be nearly impossible for either leader to get the 1237 delegates needed for an outright win.  At that point, it will be clear that it's going to be a contested convention.  The date could possibly slip to May 10th or May 17th, but I don't think that it will go that far.

 

What will be really telling is what Trump does at that point.  Will he drop out and announce that he is running as an independent, or will he stick in there all the way up to the convention?  My guess is the former, and by design.  He wants to siphon off the republican vote in the general election.  By that point Hillary will have sewn up the democrat coronation nomination.  It will be interesting to see what Bernie Sanders supporters do at that point as well as what the socialist himself does.  Does he also try to run on an independent ticket as well?  Probably not.  If he does, then it could make for an interesting general election.  Trumpettes siphon off of the republican side while the "feel the bern" sheep siphon off of the democrat side.

 

 

Let me teach you about the democrats...  Back in 2008, Hillary Clinton was supposed to be the nominee.  Her supporters were very upset, more than Bernie supporters are right now, as it became clear that Obama was gonna win.

 

Guess what happened?  Well, as this is your first year of following politics, I'll tell ya.  Obama won in a land slide.  All the Hillary supporters rallied around Obama.  Same thing is gonna happen here...  I can't stand Hillary Clinton.  But there's no way I'm voting for lyin' Ted Cruz...  Trump intrigues me, but I'm not a typical democratic voter...  If Trump wins the nominee, he's gonna get destroyed in the National. 

 

Now, if you haven't noticed, the debates on the Democratic side, while somewhat heated, are not at the levels of Trump VS Cruz.  Or have you not figured that out yet either?

 

Seriously, it's getting really hard reading your posts as you appear to not really understand US politics at all.

 

Oh, by the way...  LOL at Rubio.  It shows how naive you are if you think Rubio has any chance of winning the nomination.  It's laughable how out of touch with politics reality you are.

 
Paul Ryan is the whisper candidate at this point.  Rubio lost FLORIDA.  Remember that?  He can't win his own state.  And you think he's gonna be the contested nominee?  LOL, silly child.
