Romney's son got the boo for claiming that Mitt won the nomination. Well, he haven't so far, OK? We won't know who gets the nomination till the RNC in Tampa. So shut the trap with the false claims till then, or be prepared for the crowd to retaliate.

We already know who will get the nomination. It will be confirmed on May 29th, most likely.

Sorry to rain on your parade.

Who doesn't want to listen to a person born into wealth that's never had to work to survive? Who supports staying in Iraq, yet refuses to join our soldiers... I don't understand *rolls eyes*

Romney only had 312, this morning, How do you get to 900?
Remember, delegates are not a given, this time around.
The people are fighting the establishment over them and winning.

Your count is ignoring that the GOP convention rules does specifically state that states can bind delegates. The Unit Rule, is something slightly different. That all delegates must vote with the majority of the states. The GOP establishment also will be the one to interpret the rules, including the rule that says the GOP convention can be scraped if not properly run.

Even Ron Paul said he will have to actually start winning some popular votes.

Romney only has about 300 delelgates. Ron Paul will sweep at the convention in Tampa.
