There are 2,286 delegates. It takes 1,145 delegate votes to win.
......................

The Republican Party has grown increasingly confident of a presidential victory in 2012, encouraged by a rise in the number of self-identified Republicans from 2008 and a steady decline in President Barack Obama's approval ratings. Since 2008, the Republican Party has experienced big gains in White voters, including younger and poorer Whites who trended Democratic. The results of the 2010 census also reduced the influence of traditionally blue states in the electoral college.
......................

In 2011, a record one-fifth of the U.S. Congress, 81 congressmen, visited Israel for firsthand education on Israeli foreign policy, sponsored by the American Israel Education Foundation. [..] RealClearPolitics suggested that a visit to Israel was a "near requisite" for running for President in the Republican Party as these visits influenced evangelical voters and promoted awareness of serious security issues in the region.
