I agree with Tim. This is the biggest “glitch” in the game. Even H. Clinton dropped out of the race weeks before the convention. And she was pretty close to Obama in votes. There should perhaps be some kind of a preasure-mechanism from the party, to get the candidate to withdraw from the race, so that the candidate don’t ruin the chances for the party to win the election.

I would consider this a glitch in the game. It’s one thing for a second place candidate to stay in until the matter is settled, but when I have well over the necessary number of committed delegates, there’s no reason for a losing candidate to keep attacking me until the convention. The campaign is over when a majority of delegates are committed to the winning candidate.

You dont have to offer the VP position to Thompson. After you won the nomination a box will come up with a list of bunch of names to pick your VP.

Yes, you need to conserve PIPs if you think this sort of situation is going to happen, so that you can persuade any opponent who doesn’t drop out on their own accord to leave the race.

I’m in July in a 2008 campaign w/ Romney and have won the vast majority of delegates. Thompson won’t drop out b/c of bad relations. I only have the PIP’s I started out with even though I should have the nomination and I’m not able to offer the VP to anyone except Thompson. Is this how it works when you have an opponent who won’t drop out? Do I have to wait till the convention or am I missing something? Thanks!
