There is some truth in the article. Romney has done well enough in these primaries to win most. This is despite some major flaws. The fact is, ideology aside, he does look and sound the part. I am frustrated beyond belief he is our nominee but he most likely is.
My biggest argument in this article is the following sentence...it is so incredibly wrong headed it pretty much voids anything else the author said.
When people talk about the Republican establishment, they are really talking about the successful people who will make up his government. This is about running a government.
this is idiotic. The establishment is the complete opposite and do not know how to 'run' a government. This was proven beyond a reasonable doubt in the past 10 years.

Romney does well in areas that have a lot of liberals/lean towards Obama or where he can outspend his opponents, or both. That's the dirty secret, and in the general election most of those liberals will vote Obama just like they did in 2008, and Obama and his supporters will be able to outspend Romney, not to mention the MSM unloading on Romney and his "religion".
There's nothing to be confident about. And as DannyTN said, a win for Romney is not a win for Conservatives - Romney will be able to do whatever he and the RINOs in Congress want to do, because there will be very little Republican opposition to him, since so many Republicans in Congress are cut from the same cloth that Romney is.
