He's losing the far left fast, even though pandering to them every day.
He may try to veer to the center, but I really don't think he an win independents over a challenger because they are increasingly seeing how they were hoodwinked.

We don't know who our candidate will be at this point. Let's say, just to throw out a few names, that it would be Romney or Huckabee. You and I both know that a lot of Republicans here on FR would stay home and not vote. They absolutely would not care if Obama gets re-elected.
I, on the other hand, will vote for anyone we run against Obama. The damage may have already been done, however, and no one can fix it.
The Democrats said that in 2004 about Bush. Then they went and nominated John Kerry. The GOP's chances in 2012 will also depend on who they nominate.
Don't confuse how they act today with how they'll act when there is a threat they'll get a conservative President. They'll fall in line in time, they always do. They have nowhere else to go.
