AdamSmith Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Just about guarantees another Republican nominee too far right to win the general election.

Members MsGuy Posted December 23, 2014 Members Share Posted December 23, 2014 As I read it, states holding a Republican primary prior to March 15 must award delegates proportionally to the vote. That makes rolling up a decisive lead in the delegate count difficult, doesn't it? Plus effectively organizing 5 separate states at the same time puts a lot of stress on manpower and finances, factors that favor an establishment candidate. ihpguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamSmith Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Much to what you say. But somewhat on the other hand, that kicker in the article -- "It will be very difficult for a candidate who does not win in one of the first four states to survive until March as a viable contender." P.S. Sorry, I misread that completely. Disregard. Without even having started on the eggnog! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
