It won’t be interesting at all. Just look at this thread from last night and see how many FReepers are comfortable with Romney as the nominee ALREADY.

The Primary isn’t even close to over and the Convention is 6 months away and people have totally sold out. Very sad.
I’ve done all I could to affect the nomination: I voted for Santorum in the Primary.
He came in second.
I can do no more but hope and pray for the outcome of the convention, and then vote to defeat Obama in November.

Yours’ is one of the few posts that directly answers the question posed in the title of this thread.
But, you may be wrong about the ABO faction being strong enough to make things dull at FR should the party go the way Jeb and Fox are pushing it (drop out, coalesce, end the debate, have pep-rally instead of a real convention). There are so many issues and unknowns that have been simmering for months on the back burner that are about to boil over in the next 6 months - I just can’t see 2012 NOT being like 1968. JMHO.
Most, if not all, of us are NOT “comfortable” with Willard. But how can we get our own guy nominated? Oh, there’s the problem - my choice is Newt, and if I recall, yours is Rick. And it seems we’re pretty evenly divided that way here on FR. And that’s not counting RuPaul people (who would probably vote for Mittens).
Romney benefits from our division. I’d rather see a convention decision.
But will I vote for our ultimate nominee, whoEVER that is, over the Evil One?
Oh, hell yes.
