ORIGINAL: DarkSteven http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-02-01/prepare-for-a-raucous-republican-convention-commentary-by-jeff-greenfield.html All Newt needs is pluralities in five states, and the whole convention will be disunited. Paul, assuming he weathers his present racism scandal, and Gingrich will be under intense pressure to support Mitt if he is the nominee. Their names might be placed in nomination but I seriously doubt their delegates will disrupt the platform or rules committees seriously enough that the fights reach the convention. However if Romney does not have 50% + 1 of the delegates going in to the convention all bets are off. In that scenario I'd put money that the nominee would be somone who didn't seek the nomination before the convention.
