Back in the very early primaries of '08, I would have bet hard cash that there was zero way in hell McCain would end up the nominee. I wasn't even worried about him becuase the idea of him getting it was so far-fetched. The dread I felt when he
did get the nomination was chilling, all the more because I had so overestimated people vs. machine.
Romney is the machine. Fear of that same chill upon his pulling off what none of us even remotely think he can, is too fresh from McCain. Romney is BAD NEWS.
I say we nuke him from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Figuaratively speaking, of course.

I know what you're saying, but we didn't have a full-blown citizen rebellion going on during the 2008 primary. The Tea Parties sprang up partially because of the McCain nomination disaster, which led to the election of the Marxist Kenyan, and the beginning of our national nightmare.
The mood and heightened awareness of the center-right will not allow a shallow, establishment RINO like Romney to carry the day in 2012. I expect him to be soundly rejected, should he run.
Given the current mood of the country, only Tea'publicans need apply.
