Romney Is Not Out Of The Race

[AlexMerced]

Romney is not out of the race he just suspended his campaign

you have to realize he would of chosen to drop out unless he had some plan, which he does. We know Romney always ha a plan.

If he continued to campaign Mccain would win outright

this way Huckabee can sweep the ramining state and gaurantee a brokered convention

on the way there, Mccain and Huckabee will be head to head, and ROmney will be acting like he's some classic conservative as we saw today at CPAC improving his image


Why? For a Brokered convention


But it's out people who are the delegates, his plan will give us the win

That's exactly what I thought. If he was really dropping out it would've pushed McCain... :/

 

[MrZach]

Sounds like he's putting himself out there - "Hey guys, I'll drop out of the race for the right offer."

Oh, I was simply listening to all the chatter on Romney's exodus. I thought that he actually dropped out. This additional information does change the picture.

wrong. the GOP is going to re-distribute his delegates. check cnnpolitics.com

 

[AlexMerced]

no, he wants the nod

Wrong... near all his delegates are from cacuses, that's why they are reestimating it cause they'll be going elsewhere now.

I think he'll be keeping his michigan and New Hampshire delegates

And by redistribute, we mean, give them to McCain mostly, Huck secondly and Paul if there are two or three left over.

I'm growing more confused by the minute. I'll just sit back in my easy chair for a tad sipping on some hot tea.

perhaps.

 

[seapilot]

This will bring blowback to Romney, as he may lose a lot of unbound delegates at state conventions. Whats to say he wont completly withdrawl since hes not actively campaigning?

 

[AlexMerced]

Just saying, sadly... our best shot is to push huckabee and gaureanteee a borkered convention...

If he wishes to now ask for matching funds - this is the way to go about it.

He will take those matching funds and use them to pay himself back on some of the loans he made to his campaign.

Matching funds are strictly regulated by the federal government, you can't cash it into your personal account.

the backlash of doing that would ruin every political ambition he has

he's still in good position to win this year, and for strong run in 2012

Thank you, I created a thread here, that got moved to the convention forum. That has a plan that goes about doing exactly that. I have been called a troll for this and reported, so I'm not going to link the post

Sorry, but you're totally wrong.
Romney the Business Investor took a hard look after super Tuesday at the remaining states, and realised that nobody would walk into the convention with the minimum number of delegates to have the nomination cinched. That means a brokered convention. Which is the LAST thing Romney wanted because NOBODY will deal with him.

Romney plays the kind of hardball that opponents remember with much contempt and desire to return the favor. A brokered convention is exactly the situation that would shut Romney out completely, so what point is there in spending millions more of his own money at this time? NONE.

Saying "suspended" instead of "dropping out" is nothing more than Romney's ego refusing to allow him to say he's actually been beaten. Nothing more.

they would deal with him if Huckabee and Mccain attack each other between now and september.

Help me out on that one.

We know Romney won Nevada, and Ron came in second.

Would they therefore not go ahead and re-distribute his delegates by the new percentages for each remaining candidate given his elimination? That would obviously give a big boost to Ron, effectively making him the winner of that caucus. I would think this would also be the case for Montana, Maine, and every other applicable caucus where Ron had a decent percentage.

He doesn't have to.

He uses the money to pay back loans he made to run a political campaign.
