It does seem that there are those who would foist Romney upon us, but that would be a tragic mistake.
Romney can win via the McCain route, splitting off of everyone else and winning with a lot of candidates in the race. McCain was declared the winner by only getting a third of the GOP primary voters. That is Mitt's only hope. It seems to be what some of the GOP elites hope for a well.
I'm hoping someone steps forward early, right now I think Sarah is our best candidate, but I'm going to listen hard once everyone declares; heck, she might not declare and pull a Fred on us, who knows........
