Mitt Romney 'can't imagine' having a brokered convention A brokered convention? Not if Mitt Romney has anything to do with it. So much is riding on Tuesday's vote in Michigan, where a Romney loss could completely reset the Republican nomination battle. By prolonging the race and giving his three rivals no reason to give up, some in the party worry about a scenario in which no candidate has the requisite number of delegates to emerge as the nominee after the final primary in late June. But the former Massachusetts governor told the Fox Business Network Tuesday that the prospect of the nomination being decided in Tampa, Fla., in August seems unlikely. "I can't imagine the four candidates saying after a long process of fund-raising and campaigning for one to two years, that we are all going to step aside and give the nomination to someone else," he told the network, according to an advance transcript of the exchange with host Neil Cavuto. We will surely find a way. The four of us would have to find a way to make it work amongst ourselves because we are not going to hand this off to someone else after all the work we have done. Discussing Tuesday's votes, Romney said he plans on winning Arizona "soundly" and picking up a lot of delegates in Michigan whether he wins the statewide vote or not. He also dismissed the conventional wisdom that a loss in the state he grew up in would be a devastating blow. I am planning on winning in Michigan. If for some reason I don't, I have by far the most delegates," he said. If I were turned down by Massachusetts, where I have lived for the last 40 years and served as governor, that would be a little harder to explain. In the interview, Romney also dismissed talk of an alliance with Texas Rep. Ron Paul, saying the two "get along just fine," but that it's unlikely that anyone could "tell Ron Paul what to say." The full interview will air at 6 p.m.
