No, I am not kidding. I’m just reading the polls. Romney may be a flipper, but he’s got more gravitas than any of the other GOP hopefuls. Since Obama is entirely gravitas, that puts him in the best position to challenge Obama. Unless we can come up with a conservative who appeals to more than just the conservative base, we are going to end up with Romney v. Obama. That’s my prediction. I think the conservatives are going to have difficulty making their choice stick in the primary this time because there are a lot of Democrats who’ve switched parties, and they will be voting in our primary. If you don’t believe me, then look at who we nominated in 2008. If the conservatives don’t want Romney, then they are going to have to coalesce behind a conservative consensus candidate, and they are going to need to do it pretty soon.

Whats this “gravitas” you mention? And why does it attach to a lightweight like Romney. It seems to be a quality more befitting an actor.

Once again, you have got to be kidding!

ObamaCare = RomneyCare.

Game over!

IF he gets to the debates, that is going to be hung around his neck, effectively destroying him.

Furthermore, the Tea Party has already got his number. They will not let his prevarications slide, his changing positions, his big-government approach.

He's toast!
