Brokered GOP Convention?

From the Washington Examiner:
Even if he wins half of the remaining Republican presidential delegates,
front-runner Mitt Romney will fall 345 delegates short of the 1,144
needed to win the nomination, possibly setting up a brokered
convention, according to a new analysis by the “super PAC” backing
challenger Rick Santorum. 
In a white paper from the Red, White & Blue Fund, the
analysis shows that Romney would have only 799 “bound” delegates going
into the Tampa GOP convention. Romney’s team claims that their math has
them winning more than 1,144. RW&B said: “So far, 697 delegates have been allocated by either state party rule or state law to particular candidates. If each candidate continues
to accumulate the 918 remaining delegates that will be bound at the
same rate, no candidate will reach 1,144 going into Tampa. Mitt Romney
currently has 344 delegates by our count. If he continues to accumulate
bound delegates at the same rate (49% of bound delegates) moving
forward, he will add approximately 450 of the 918 delegates still to be
bound. This would give Romney only 799 delegates going into Tampa.
”The fund starts at a lower number of delegates for each candidate than most
media counts. The reason: They only count bound delegates, of which
there are fewer. For example, their delegate list has Romney with 344,
Santorum with 193, Newt Gingrich with 160 and Ron Paul with 33.

I think a brokered convention will be good for the GOP.  It will create a crazy atmosphere with lots of media attention and will create a lot of interest in the GOP party.  There will wall to wall coverage of a brokered convention and most of the publicity will be positive.  And since many GOP just don't like the current crop of GOP candidate, we actually may get a different candidate for president.  The more attention on a brokered means less attention on Obama and that will be a positive.
