Brokered Convention
How the Democratic nominating battle could end in a messy 'brokered convention'
(Reuters) - Seemingly every four years, political pundits speculate about a "brokered" U.S. presidential convention - only to see a nominee selected with little or no drama. But that may not be the case in 2020.
With the field of Democratic contenders deeply fragmented ahead of the all-important Super Tuesday contests in 14 states on March 3, chances are growing that no contender will amass the majority of delegates needed to clinch the nomination outright.
PredictIt, one of the most active markets taking bets on U.S. politics, on Thursday implied a better-than-even chance that neither Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, the national-front-runner, nor his rivals will secure the minimum 1,991 delegates needed to win the nomination on the first ballot at this July's convention in Milwaukee.
Failure to secure a first-ballot win could result in a "brokered convention," in which candidates and party leaders engage in horse trading to try to gain a majority of delegates on subsequent ballots.
Try to follow me here, boys and girls. (You liberals, find someone with an education to simplify this and explain it to you, I don't have time to be your teacher.)
Crazy Bernie, the most popular Communist since Castro is sucking up delegates like Monica Lewinsky sucked up future Clintons. This man has the most loyal (albeit the dumbest) following of all time. In South Carolina, these Commie-Edited are actually threatening Democrats who might be supporting Quid Pro Quo Joe.
Bernie represents everything the Democrat Party has stood for since the Port Huron Statement. He is the most honest Democrat of all time, in that he does not hold back on his communist, fascist and Edited ideas for America. He is sincere about turning this prosperous nation into Venezuela.
WHY would the Democrats take this away from him?
Meanwhile, those of us with jobs who have an education and a Republican voter registration are laughing our Edited asses off. If Crazy Bernie IS the nominee, he's the easiest bozo to beat since Mondale. If he is NOT the nominee, the Democrat Party splits and Trump is reelected in the biggest landslide of all time.
Time to sit back with some nice fresh
