Romney WON the primary!

Romney wasn't getting those crowds in the primary, he was getting those crowds after he won the nod. I was one of those people who used crowd size as an indicator that he would win against Obama and man were I and others wrong.

To win you need a ground game, you need people to nudge others to caucus or to vote for you with a get the vote out effort, you need internal polling and you need to ground and pound the early primary counties in states not hold 1 or 2 rallies in stadiums. Trump has no ground game, no get out the vote effort and he doesn't even have all the precinct captains in Iowa get to caucus for him. In this part of the primary Donald can have those crowds if he can't mobilize them then he's this cycles Howard Dean then so be it.
