A good interview for your list. I hope the transcript comes out, post a more direct link if you can.
Hopefully this is not a surprise to you. Many of us have known this from the inception.
Except the rest of the candidates gave Mitt a pass.

Did Mitt Romney Just Wrap Up The GOP Nomination?
Frontrunner cruises through debate as rivals scrap for second place
Santorum attacks Romney as ‘business leader’ rather than presidential material - but frontrunner remains unshaken.
Ron Paul accuses Newt Gingrich of avoiding military service during Vietnam
Rick Perry: ‘I would send troops back into Iraq.’
Huntsman hits back at Romney over trade with China - in Mandarin
Rivals united in opposition against gay marriage
Mitt Romney’s position as Republican frontrunner has been solidified after he emerged unscathed from a debate in which his rival sniped against each other but appeared to be observing a non-aggression pact against the man leading in the polls.
The most explosive moments in the debate in New Hampshire, which holds its primary election on Tuesday, came in the de facto contest for second place.
Romney advisers, who had expected their candidate to be the main focus of attacks, were clearly relieved afterwards.
Romney would be ‘gored’ in Massachusetts.

G_d bless you, Sarah!!! Now we need to have everyone hear this LOUD and clear...anyone but Romney as the nominee and anyone but Obama in the election!!!!!!!!!!
Someone chime in jim
What is shocking to me is how little Romney has been vetting so far during this primary. Again and again he gets a pass during the debates. I have never seen anything like it in my entire life of watching politics.
Debate after debate after debate social issues are not mentioned (the very thing Romney is despised and is weakest on) and I do not think it's an accident. The moderators are purposely steering the conversations away from social issues to try and prop up Romney just enough for him to secure the nomination at which point they will blast him to mars with negative ads they play up his liberal stands on social issues and his Mormon religion
When we run a real conservative, we win, the Left knows that.
Let's hope that it helps Gingrich win in coming days.
Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen it.
You betcha they do
Oh crap! Really?
Let me pick up a large object and drop it so I might test whether or not gravity still works. Later, I’ll check and see if water is still wet!
Is Gingrich/Palin about to happen?
Wow, that was a great interview, she nailed the guy.
I don’t know if I agree with her here. If Romney can get the nomination his leftism could help neutralize the dem base. Just a thought, who knows. Given the media and the continual rise of the left I’m not sure Obama’s even close to beatable. Especially now the economy is miraculously “improving”. Anyone who thinks Obama is toast you better prepare for a shock.
The Dems are absolutely salivating at the prospect of running against an aloof Wall Street multi-zillionaire (who will be said to have looted companies and outsourced American jobs overseas). It fits right into their age-old stereotype that they want the entire GOP to be defined as.
The fact that the GOP establishment is so eager and so willingly giving the Dems this solid-gold gift is a monumental testament to their idiocy. Or perhaps they genuinely just ‘want’ Obama to win. After experiencing the past three years (and their rotten treatment of Palin, the Tea Party, etc.), I’ve gotten to the point I truly have to consider such things.
Wow, how did she come up with that one?
She is right and I can’t believe that rat is allowed to continue his farce.
He is a joke.
The cure for him is South Carolina and other southern states.
Then let him debate again.
