Sad.

Over $50 million for a single delegate.

As the LA Times notes, that's the worst dollar for delegate record in American presidential history. The previous winner was John Connally who spent $11 million for a single delegate in 1980.

And at that rate Rudy would have needed $60 billion to win the nomination.

I don't think 10 trillion would have gotten him the GOP nomination!  He might have done better as a Democrat.
