A Brokered Convention?

No, I'm not referring to the Obama/Clinton battle; I'm talking about the other side.

The press is going on and on about how Mike Huckabee can't get enough delegates to win. But that's only because they're short-sighted and stupid. Huckabee can't win a majority of delegates by the end of the primary/caucus season, but he can catch John McCain -- and prevent McCain from getting a majority.

Which brings us to the 278 delegates controlled by Mitt Romney. Keep in mind, he didn't withdraw, he merely "suspended" his campaign, so he gets to keep those delegates. What is he planning to do with them?

Huckabee/Romney -- remember, you heard it here first.
