    Default republican party at war with itself heads for a brokered convention

    i wonder what will happen if santorum wins a significant number of delegates...or even a majority

    will the rep moderates desert the party or hope for a brokered convention

    if santorum wins the nomination, he may as well hand the election to obama

    And Sarah Palin has not ruled out jumping into a brokered convention! Could this get any more exciting?

    I don't know if I'd go that far but according to the polls it would give Obama a hell of an advantage.
