Romney’s the weak Establishment horse and Palin is the only other candidate in a position to stop him, but that simple truth is the last thing anyone in the media wants to acknowledge.
Look at this Gallup poll. Only Romney and the still undeclared Palin register double-digit support (at 24% and 16% respectively), while after the massive media hype of the last two weeks Bachmann only ties at 7th with Gingrich, at 5%.

I do think that other RINOs could hurt Romney but Pawlenty hasn’t done much and I think Huntsman got lost on his way to entering the Democrat primary. I’m hoping Rudy gets in because he could possibly siphon off Romney’s base of northeast support in states like Pa and NJ.
Though I don’t trust polls this far out, by and large I agree with you. It’s probably Romney or Palin.
