I’m not.

Here’s why. Mitt Romney just needs South Carolina, New Hampshire and Iowa.

The end game is the following.

1, get your two horses in the race, Mitt and Newt from the beginning - mission accomplished.

Then you destroy the conservative challengers as they come up. Cain - destroyed. Bachmann is out. Now you’ve got to get rid of Perry and Santorum.

When Gingrich started polling ahead of Mitt Romney, that wasn’t in the plan. So Romney came out full bore to knock him down. Newt, also blew a tire with the VA mess.

What Romney, and everyone didn’t count on was Santorum. Santorum came out of nowhere and took Iowa. Romney takes NH, without much fuss.

Now, here’s the game. Romney wants to KO all the conservatives at South Carolina. He’s got a knockout blow saved up.

That’s why they’ve waited until now. They haven’t had to play it. Now, with only 3 days left until the election, it’s going to be on the news as much as they can run it and push Romney into first in South Carolina.

Nomination over.

That's about what I see. Funny how many jumped on Cain over allegations but stood steadfast behind Newt. Of the three, I see Santorum as the last best choice, but Paul could upset the applecart in Virginia if the anti-Romney voters will hold their nose long enough to throw a monkey wrench into the Romney machine.

If enough people can vote against Romney, however, wherever, maybe we can end up with a brokered convention. Otherwise, it'll be two flavors of statists and bidness as usual in DC.
