I doubt that Romney is a real conservative, but he is the best, electable candidate that I have seen. I don't think Hunter or Brownback stand much of a chance...

There's always Gilmore, the former governor of Virginia, and Huckabee.

Maybe the MSM is hyping Romney to drown out any other alternatives to the two they want the Republican primary voters to choose between, Giuliani and McCain.

Why do you doubt that?
