You shoulda' taken the bet.

Paul Ryan: "Count me out!"

;D
Well I didn't think Paul Ryan would but I am willing to bet they TRY to get someone other than Trump or Cruz....and if that happens I am done with the GOP!

I don't believe a damned word ANY politician utters. Ryan will step up to the podium and accept the will of his chosen party if they wail his name loud enough and long enough. . .  He ain't fooling' me one bit. . .  :rolleyes:

Maybe, but if something like that happens, you can guarantee and independent run by one or more of the candidates who participated in the primaries.  It would be a severe black eye to the Republican party that, quite frankly, they may not be able to survive.

I'm not disagreeing with you...this could be a very interesting GOP conference....a lot of people will be very upset if it isn't Trump or Ctuz and justifiably so!

A brokered convention will be a spectacle for the entire country.  That's for sure.

That was before my time.  Why did that remind you of him?

He's fertilizer. . .(April 24 1997 in Tijuana) But hey, don't let that stop anything. Move the convention to Chicago and he's as good as live!  :biggrin:

Indeed he did, and I recall seeing it on black and white television live. . .

Listen here whipper-snapper.  :genius:  I may be old but I haven't reached the damned summit of this mountain, (although I think I can see it through the clouds from time-to-time), so I damned sure ain't over the hill yet!  :big grin:

He made that statement on 31MAR1968. I was 10 years old. And it was in black and white because the station we saw it on did not yet broadcast the news in color.  :big grin:

PS- Just so you don't feel left out or anything here's a link with the video of it, (in color); https://www.minnpost.com/eric-black-ink/2016/03/day-lbj-changed-political-history-and-two-minnesotans-played-key-roles   :icon_twisted:
