Coordinated effort for brokered convention? Take down Mccain!

[syborius]

I hear that huckabees army is open to the idea to work together to make sure Mccain does not get 51%.
Are people here willing to work together with Huck's people, and Romney people to stop Mccaniac? In some states where it is obvious we can not win, maybe we just aim for the delegates in the caucuses, but when it comes to the popular vote maybe we vote for huckabee in the winner take all states? I expect to be flamed for this, but it might not be a bad strategy to try anyway we could for a brokered convention. Like RP said, anything can happen, and Underdogs like Abraham Lincoln walked in with very few delegates and won. So, maybe this is something to consider? Just a thought. I would appreciate some considerate feedback and analysis. I think this might be our only option. :cool:

Coexisting with them to take down McCain, yes. Working with them to get Huckabee more votes, no.
