512????? Try 578 Looks

512????? Try 578

Looks like someone is trying to confuse people.

I'll put it simply for those who don't understand....

BROKERED CONVENTION!

Republican Delegates (1,191

Republican Delegates (1,191 needed to win nomination)
Candidate Delegates
Mike Huckabee 190
John McCain 613
Ron Paul 14
Mitt Romney 269
Total 1,086
1,191 - 613 = 578 delegates short

Up for grabs: 468
Feb. 12: 116 Republican delegates, including 63 in Virginia and 37 in Maryland.
March 4: 256 Republican, including 137 in Texas and 85 in Ohio.
May 6: 96 Republican, including 69 in North Carolina.

So: 578 needed by McCain to win
-468 remaining

Proportional states would disagree

McCain gambled and won poorly.

This is going to a brokered convention.

We did

He'd have to win first in 15 more states.. wish him luck on that
