That is his current position but the script of the play would be a brokered convention, a concession that Romney cannot be nominated but also that neither Gingrich nor Santorum have enough votes and that some of their respective supporters refuse to unite behind one of them. Then some "trusted" party leaders (for public consumption) appeal to Daniels to save the party and the country and Daniels humbly agrees, is nominated and is shellacked by Obozo because he is not able to win a charisma contest.

In Miss America terms, Daniels loses the swimsuit contest, finishes last for Mr. Congeniality and a distant second to Obozo. "Too bad, soooo sad!" the GOP elitists solemnly intone as they sit down with Obozo, Pelosi, Reid, McConnell and Weepy Boehner to play their favorite game:

Let's Make a Deal!

Remember, gentlemen, that it was those same elites who sold us down the river for Weicker's state income tax in 1991. NEVER forget. The only things they care about are money and the power to command it.
