"If the Boston Globe is trying to destroy him, that counts in his favor so far as I'm concerned."
And the media is totally ignoring Duncan Hunter and probably others. That should count for more.
The Dems want Romney gone because on so many issues, he has a history of being very close to their own positions. It is easy for them to attack a conservative, it provides clear differences. But running against a Brady, Assault-weapon fearing, pro-choice candidate who will never push his own point of view gives them little room to maneuver.
If Mitt is so bad to the Globe and MSM, why are they ignoring real conservatives?

Well . . .
The "real conservatives" you mention are no names with no executive experience and no major backers and have no chance of occupying the oval office. That is why they're not worth the ink.
You're logic lack a lot too . . . RUdy's much more close to being a Democrat than Mitt (by a LOOOOONG shot) . . . and he's polling 3-5X better than Romney now too . . . but where are all the MSM hit pieces against Rudy? I'm not buying your argument.

If Mitt is so bad to the Globe and MSM, why are they ignoring real conservatives? Being realistic, they are probably ignoring Duncan Hunter, et al because, at this point, they don't appear to have a chance of winning the nomination.
Any conservative who rises above the noise in the polls will have a bull's eye painted squarely on his back, though.
Understand, it's not that I'm against Duncan Hunter -- or any other conservative. Instead, I'm a conservative first (and an anti-McCain second). I'm just answering your question as honestly as I can.
