(CNN) – While some see no impending end to the GOP nomination battle, Mitt Romney reiterated Wednesday that he expects to capture his party's nomination, and does not foresee an open or contested convention.
"We've got the time and resources and a plan to get all the delegates. We think that will get done before the convention," Romney said in a CNBC interview. "One thing I can tell you for sure is there's not going to be a brokered convention where some new person comes in and becomes the nominee. It's going to be one of the four people that are still running."
