They were actually talking about something like this happening even without someone else jumping in. Apparently the odds makers say there is about a 20% chance that neither Romney or Santorum will win enough delegates to get the nomination and there will be a brokered convention. That could cause all kinds of chaos and could, potentially, fracture the republican party.
