Thus denying The Donald delegates and forcing a brokered convention. Wonder what will happen if the GOP denies him the nomination... cuz that's the plan folks.

Trump is likely to lose Ohio, but according to 538, that's not enough to force a brokered convention.


Florida and Ohio are hyped up not only because of their favorite sons (for good reason), but also because they are the only “true” winner-take-all states: The Florida winner will claim 99 delegates, and the Ohio winner will claim 66 — no ifs, ands or buts. However, Illinois and Missouri could functionally become winner-take-all too. Both states award their delegates on a congressional-district level. So if Trump (or someone else) sweeps their congressional districts, that candidate will win all the delegates. Together, Missouri and Illinois will award 121 delegates — which would go a long way in helping Trump stay “on track (http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/election-2016/delegate-targets/)” for the nomination even if he loses either Florida or Ohio.

I hope Trump wins so I can watch all the people line up behind him after they said they wouldn't. I also want one more finger in the establishments smug eye..............But I have also liked Kasich.

Whether Trump or the "establishment" prevail... after this Clusterfutz of a Primary, the Democratic nominee is a shoe in.

Famous last words.

My thoughts are that Trump could probably beat Hillary -- since this is an anti-status quo season - but I have my doubts as to whether he could beat Sanders. There's not a Republican around that would cross and vote for Hillary, but we've already heard of up to 20% of dems, in some places, changing affiliation to vote in primaries for the Donald.

Many are hoping that those "former dems" are voting because they think Trump will be the easiest candidate to beat in the general, but that's wishful thinking. Cruz is so religiously radical that he makes Hillary appear sane. Trump, on the other hand, is pulling from both sides of the aisle.

If they can't stop him now -- I doubt someone with as much baggage as Hillary has could do it.

Sanders? Are you kidding... once the Republicans fear machine beats the SOCIALIST>>>PINKO>>>>COMMIE drum all the way to November, Sanders won't have a chance. They haven't even scratched the surface on what their attack adds will do to him. At least with Clinton, people have heard the smear campaign being waged on her for years now and have seen her detractors come up empty handed.. It's not going to phase them one way or the other.

Sanders has a LOT of millennial support. And, you have to remember that Trump (were he to get the nod) isn't running many ads.

The young-un's have forgotten -- or rather, never knew -- the fear that surrounded socialism in the past. They think Sanders is spiffy and I imagine Hillary would endorse him if she lost the primary, which would also bolster him. Debates between him and Trump would end with Sanders on top, I have a feeling. Trump will kick Hillary's rear end, however, and put her on the defensive.

That's all conjecture, however. Just my two cents. At this point -- we're all equal in predicting the outcome.

I wonder whether Rubio will drop out after today. If he doesn't win Florida I don't see how he can stay in.

Candidates really don't have to run attack ads.... They let their SUPER PACs do that and then deny affiliation..

The possibility that the lying, corrupt, murdering Hillary could be elected speaks quite poorly for those voting for her! Of course the same voters put the unvetted B. Hussein Obama in who has trashed our country by being the worst president in our history.

I don't think so they have not even started with her and the Scandal, Bill and his trips to pedophile Island.

I will be surprised if her Health holds up when Trump is after her day after day. and he is not going to be polite or nice or any of the hands of niceties that the GOP has been forced into in the past.

She is going ot be called on all of her past failures which are many and discretions of which the list is long as well.

Actually we are HOPING Trump goes after Clinton with all the misogyny and hatred and insults his black little heart can muster... and Clinton will hold her head up high and talk about issues and common sense. The contrast will be apparent and it will destroy his chances.. He will lose.

What makes you think that? She never has been able to do that before? Well WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?

If it was Bill I would say that you are right, but Hillary? She is different, She has a Royalty complex about her that is very telling. And she says stupid shit, like we are going to put a lot of Coal miners out of work and a lot of Coal companies out of business?

And she has accomplished Nothing in her tenure in DC.

I am not worrying about Women, they hate her, with the possible exception of True that has the hot's for her.

But if the choice is between Clinton and Trump, there really is no winner anyway

One thing we know for sure is that if Trump Wins the unemployment rate will drop dramatically, because the only time I have seen the DNC this confident is when they predicted that Kerry was going to mop the floor with Bush.

Wait what am I saying, most Democrats don't work. I meant to say that the welfare rolls will drop dramatically. There that sounds better.
