It could work. Question: if we have a state and we teamed up with Huckabee against McCain, how would that work? Say that the Paul/Huckabee slate got 66% but McCain got 34% and we win, when it comes down to deciding delegates, what do we do? Split them 50/50?

good question
i really dont know probly just split em down percentage wise or even as uncommited i doubt huckabee has many people whos signed up and got signateure to be delegates so essentialy we would get more when it comes down to it anyways whoeevr they are pledged to
all we have to do is get to the brokered convention and the only one who seems like he can do it is mccain they said it wouldnt be easy for romney and he was beating huck so...
we also need to make sure that hucksters online audiance knows aboput what a brokered convention is as well if they dont already know
im off to find witch states this may be most effective in and post those hear
then to see if hucks people know what up with that and then to research how to set up a slate like that if at all possible in targeted states

___________________________________
Come June, McCain will have won 211 more delegates…
703 + 211 = 914
Let’s say McCain pulls out the win in Texas…
914 + 138 = 1052
McCain is still short of the 1,191 delegates necessary to win the nomination. Add in Ohio, and he’s still short.
AND these states (except 3) are not winner take all states - meaning the delegates will be split and distributed to 2nd and 3rd place finishers…
We have a long road to go…
McCain doesn’t have enough campaign cash left to make it past May.
Ron Paul could potentially go into the GOP convention with almost 300 delegates.
A brokered convention was the plan from day 1, why change now?
